Like an approaching storm from the East it came
And in the blink of an eye I was swallowed in darkness.
Deafening thunder bellowed angry hammers in my ears
While lightening flashes took pictures of the change;
This mind of mine was drowning in a painful comfort,
Tears washing away dried blood of the past,
Then the West winds blew in serenity
Leaving behind auburn streaks in blue skies--
The remnants of a man who has learned to love himself.

Marcel

Wow!  Powerful.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.
