    "Happy" is something planted in you before age 4 or so, and not stamped out after that. Public schools stamp it out ion most kids, but not all.

    Happiness is within.

    When we let go of the attachment we have to the external world,

    and look within our Selves, we find happiness. It's that simple.

    There is a simple deep Truth within us all,

    when found it brings such a sweet happiness

    that cannot be compared to anything in this world.
