HAPPINESS (Billie Davies)
(Chakra key: E♭/ E – You need to know who you are)
Choose what you do based on what you love
Choose your friends based on affection
Take nothing for granted and learn to trust
Most people are born good
Choose to be happy
Fight for what you want
And make sure you know what you want
Travel the world
Eat chocolate for breakfast
Have an ice cream dinner
You need to know who you are
Choose to be happy
Persist in choosing to be you, in choosing to be different
By listening to your heart and feeling your soul
Learn who you are
Choose to do nothing if there is no purpose
Choose to own your own life
You need too know who you are
Choose to be happy
“Take the world as you find it
Make the best of the present moment
laugh at Fortune generous or unkind
live for love and art in bold simplicity and naturalness,
There is no sin but that of Hypocrisy.” (Gelett Burgess)
