Relativity


What does being happy mean?
How would you define it to me,
or how would your friend?

That man on the street laughing with a kitten,
or that woman in the office who's geting a big raise.

That girl getting new clothes,
or that boy going to the zoo for the first time.

Don't try too hard to define happy,
it comes naturally.
