If You Can't Be Happy, Don't Worry

Worry is just an emotion….

a thought that got all tangled up in itself,

and thought it was important,

like a dog chasing it’s own tail.

 

Happy is just happy,  pure dumb luck….

…like finding another good one

on your plate… you don’t really care

where it came from.

 

Poor worry tries to figure itself out….

find a solution…

call in the troops…

make a big stink…

hide in the corner…

drown itself in whatever….

spend lots of energy…take itself seriously

when we’re  all doomed anyway.

 

Did you start to worry when I wrote  “doomed”?

 

Think of “doomed” as something happy….like

“we’re doomed to be happy…”

 

Actually, we are, because if we  weren’t  “doomed

to be happy” sometimes…  it never would have happened.

 

That’s how my daughter learned her sense of humor….

she felt doomed and I made her laugh when she was crying…

it pissed her off after a while of years, but by that time she had

a sense of humor. My father did the same to me.

 

It’s not just a positive attitude,  Dude!

It’s realizing that if you hold on to anything

it’s futile

a waste of time

a useless drainy stinky bad thing….got me?

 

Be happy….

it’s so much more so.... very .....very... 

so simple.
