Happiness Accessible

In continuation from One Moment, Please...

She was thrilled.
The advice was working.
All her life she had spent searching for happiness. Clubbing, dating, shopping, pigging out. Every plausible avenue she had probed most diligently in search of happiness elusive. Met with no yield.
Until now! she screamed mentally.
By simply breathing in, and breathing out, she was practically generating happiness.
She had no idea how accessible it had been all along. The more she went in search of it, the more it eluded her.
Just a caveat. She could.. no, should not, grow attached to this happiness. It was definitely not an end, not even a means. It was the side product of a long journey she was finally able to embark upon. Settling on the mere happiness and clinging onto it would be extremely tempting, but she knew there was more to aspire to now.
Aye, a long journey it will be, probably, as well one by no means easy, but at least, she could tell herself that 'life' had truly begun...
