I am trying very hard to always leave a person happier than I found him, a heart fuller than before I knew it. This, unfortunately, is a very hard thing to do. Sometimes, I don't know how to cheer someone up and I wonder why I ever thought I could. What do I know about being happy? I am happy a lot of the time, but I have no idea why; I think I'm just lucky.
But, what good is my happiness if I don't know how to let it rub off on other people? (As my boy Chris McCandless pointed out, happiness is only real when shared).
I don't know how to cheer people up and, as a result, I am hogging the happiness, I am greedy with joy.
