What does it mean to be happy?
Growing up I realize I dunno what it really means to be happy Is it having whole family or being with whom you like? Is it a situation? Some say it is a choice. What I want to know is how does it feel to be happy. Write in any form.

Happiness

Happiness is carefree

It doesn´t care what the world thinks

Or what people think

Happiness is content

It is the feeling of being content with where you are at

Not the feeling of wanting something more

Happiness is when we truly live

When we show our smiles to the sky

And spin around in circles with our arms extended

Happiness is the light feeling inside your chest that no one can explain

It can come in one quick instant

Yet disappear in another

Happiness is meant to be shared

Not taken away or kept to oneself

Happiness can´t be faked

Or created

Happiness can´t be described

Or explained

Happiness can´t always fill that hole

Or void

But

Happiness can heal

Happiness is like a bandaid

It protects wounds

And helps them heal

But

You have to give it time
