Easter Egg Hunt of the World

I don't have the energy to be happy all the time. I like being happy, it's fun, it's enjoyable, makes me smile, makes other people smile, all that good stuff, but let's face it - it's work. It takes energy to notice all the good stuff nestled around me, sunlight on the leaves, small pebbles that glint like jewels, squishy tar in the middle of the road in the summer - the wonderful easter egg hunt of the world. It takes energy to let go of all the things I would be better off forgetting, of all the things I cannot make happen and cannot control.
