True Happiness Poem by Mereia Namatua

I want money, I want fame
They are nothing more than getting me insane
For all of this are no needs
As happiness you will never achieve
Day in and out you will worry
About your money, your house and all its glory
People will want this and that from you
You will have to please them and look like a fool
True happiness is never about money
True happiness is never about fame
So to all my fellow mates
Be contented or else you will go insane
True happiness is having inner peace
True happiness is being free
Of all the mind’s struggle
Or it will land you puzzled
True happiness is in family
True happiness is in friends
True happiness is in Christ
Who in heaven resides
Friends don’t chase after wrong things
Like fame, money or other things
You will end up getting tired
And later on finds that true happiness has been there all along
But you never see it as something to be truly happy of
