Happiness tickles

Happiness Tickles

Sadness feels like a rainy day,
Depression, like a weight on your chest.
Anger is like a fire boiling in your very veins.
When these are your primary feelings, indifference is the best you can hope for. Indifference feels like a blank sheet of paper. Nothing.
But happiness? Happiness tickles, like someone finding your hidden tickle spot.
Safety is like having your best friend nearby all the time, just if you need to tell secrets.
Love is a rush, like skydiving or bungee jumping.
Being protected feels like a big bear hug, all the time.
Emotions are not just a mental state of mind.
Physically, all feelings are experienced just as strongly.
Be sad and depressed, or feel happy and giggly,
We choose to feel the way we do, one way or another.
The next time you hear a sad song and start to cry,
Or have a fight with a friend and feel your blood start to boil,
Just remember these two very simple words…
Happiness tickles.
