Happiness


            Sure lots of people value friends and family but what are they without happiness? The thing I value the most would have to be happiness. As long as I am happy what else really matters? Nothing else really matters as long as I am filled with a smile. No one can stop me from doing what I love and being me when I am happy!
            So am I the only one who values happiness? No. Am I the only one who will ever say it is important to me? No. Like John Lennon once said:
“When I was five years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I did not understand the assignment, and I told them they did not understand life.”
-John Lennon

This probably has to be my favorite quote ever because he reminds us that happiness is all we need. Just like all we need is love.

    1. Well you know, his life was not all that simple. I actually watching the movie "John Lennon vs. The U.S." when I wrote this and for his support of peace during the war the FBI would follow/watch him. This picture just happened to be around that time.
