Happiness is often associated with romantic
love. I don't think that's right. Happiness is an
early morning walk. Happiness is when the
food in front of you makes your mouth water.

There is a thing in me that dreamed of trees,
A quiet house, some green and modest acres

With only streams and birds for company,
To build out of my life a few wild stanzas.

Why does one feel so different at night? Why is it so exciting to be awake when everybody else is asleep? Late, it is very late.

I wanna go on a long train ride in Switzerland

I wanna go on a long train ride in Switzerland
and stop at little cafés and eat at corner
restaurants and spend nights drinking coffee
on the balcony of hotel room.

You have to love and respect yourself because

You have to love and respect yourself because
no amount of love from others is sufficient to
fill the yearning that your soul requires from
you.

Perhaps it is while drinking

Perhaps it is while drinking coffee that I most of all enjoy the sense of leisure.
