Chasing happiness

I want to be happy. Happiness or sadness is  a state of mind. Sadness comes very easily to me and happiness runs away very fast from me, faster than I can catch it again. I  have enough reasons in this world to be happy and smiling.  I have faced my moments of sorrow, but have stood against them with all my heart and might. Losing my mother after see her battle cancer was my greatest loss. But she lived to the last day, knowing very well that it was her last. But now it seems that it has taught me to fight, fight against anything. Her love and blessings are still with all her three daughters, we all believe strongly. Her courage was and will always remain etched in my heart. The daughters are now totally for their father, who has learnt to live alone. We do not want to leave him alone and are always looking forward to spend time with him. See him play with his grandchildren brings back memories of our childhood and a smile to my face. My treasures are my two twinkling stars, the pillars of my strength. They make me happy, make me smile and make me cry too sometimes. And my saviour is no other than my better half, who has been my support and mentor even in the most trying times. Always motivating me to be happy, his motto for everyone is to ‘enjoy life’, whatever be the situation.
