Because I wanna be happy.

Some of my wishes/dreams come true. Some don’t. Anyway, when I reflect on all this, I’m seldom disappointed. Because I have been blessed. And I know it. Blessed with the fulfillment of so many wishes. To complain because they all weren’t granted would be ungrateful. And selfish. And arrogant. And just plain stupid. Yet I see so many people who are downright unhappy. Because they haven’t been granted a wish. When actually, they’ve been blessed in multiple other ways. Apparently, they want everything. Want it all. And that makes for unhappiness. I’ll settle for less than everything. Because I wanna be happy. –Jim Broede
