“Happiness. Not in another place, but this place. Not for another hour, but this hour” ~ Walt Whitman
Sometimes we get so wrapped up in chasing future happiness that we forget to savor what’s right in front of us.
Happiness isn’t just around the corner, you know. It’s here, now! Take a moment to enjoy the giggle of a friend, the warmth of your cozy blanket, or the rhythm of your breath.
Every tiny, beautiful detail is a gift. Let’s unwrap joy in the present moment.
