happiness

happy new year! ruby reminded me yesterday of this pearl of wisdom:

happiness is the journey.

it doesn't have to be the destination, something we are always striving for but never arriving at. perfectly imperfect. gratitude.

A clip from this video says it all. I love Za Rinpoche's laugh.

Scroll to no. 21 "Buddha on Happiness":
