Poem: A Happier Life

A Happier Life

We spend so long

Reaching for goals

Numbers

Success

But does it really matter?

Feeling pressure

Stress

Always thinking of the future

Shouldn't we instead

Reach for happiness now?

What would make you happy

Right now?

In this moment?

What would you like to do?

Life isn't all about

Reaching for success

It can be overcome with it

If we are not careful

It's hard to put the break on

Do a 180

Completely change your perspective

But if we keep chasing the future

Will we look back

With a lack of happy memories?

A focus on work

And productivity in our free time

Switch

Try hard

Enjoy each moment

That you can

Stop

Focus on your breath

Let go of the weights

The things that weigh you down

Focus on what fills your heart

What makes you feel at peace

Do more of that

And less in a time

That you're in such a rush to arrive

Because

Before you know it

You will be there

So make happy memories

In every day

Small joys

Small steps

The joy in daily life

Don't waste the present

It's not all bad

It's okay to do nothing

Do what you want

When you can

You'll feel more relaxed

Positive vibes

A happier life
