Happiness is a feeling, an experience in the Now.

It isn’t something that we’ll get one day when we reach a certain condition in our life (job, relationship), or when we finally get our dream objects (car, house).

Happiness isn’t dependent upon outside circumstances even though our mind is trying to tell us that it is.

Happiness is just an emotion.

It is always there, in the moment, in the Now for us to tap into.

When our mind is quiet, when all thinking stops, when desires drop, when we don’t need to do anything or get anywhere,

Right Now, right Here Happiness is waiting.
