I am happy if



~I see my mother and each member of my family
free from illnesses and any suffering

~I am well, too, so that
I won't have to make my loved ones worry
about me

~I know that my friends around
smile or laugh more than frown

~My children get what they have long been wanting
so that they can appreciate it.

~My husband comes home from work
wearing a smile on his face,
that means I know his day at the office
was just fine
and his journey home didn't make him upset
because of some annoyance made by
frustrated drivers who drove carelessly

~My son's problem at school
is not disturbing him and any of us
because I have always wanted him
to have a peace of mind
and courage to last his days
with good things he should do

~My daughter arrives home from work
with a "hi" coming from her lips
as soon as she sees me.

~My friends come to see me
or me to see them
because I don't want to miss them
or them to miss me.

~I can respect people,
love them in diversity,
be compassionate for those needy,
rejoice for others' happiness
and accept them as they are
