**HAPPINESS ON HOLD**
Then we are frustrated that
the kids aren't old enough and we'll be more content when they are.
After that, we're frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with. We
will certainly be happy when they are out of that stage. We tell
ourselves that our life will be complete when our spouse gets his or her
act together, when we get a nicer car, are able to go on a nice
vacation, or when we retire. The truth is, there's no better time to be
happy than right now. If not now, when? Your life will always be filled
with challenges. It's best to admit this to yourself and decide to be
happy anyway. Happiness is the way. So, treasure every moment that you
have and treasure it more because you shared it with someone special,
special enough to spend your time with... and remember that time waits
for no one. So, stop waiting.... until your car or home is paid off--
until you get a new car or home -- until your kids leave the house
-- until you go back to school -- until you finish school -- until you lose
10 lbs. -- until you gain 10 lbs. -- until you get married -- until you get
a divorce -- until you have kids -- until you retire -- until summer
-- until spring -- until winter -- until fall -- until you die. There is no
better time than right now to be happy. Happiness is a journey, not a
destination. So -- work like you don't need money, Love like you've
never been hurt, And dance like no one's watching....
