HAPPINESS
Posted: Sun Oct 25, 2009 7:27 am
If I try to write about happiness, at times I find myself with a loss for words. I only can think about simply happy moments like:
- Happiness is spending good times with your friends and family.
- Happiness is getting a letter from an old friend.
- Happiness is catching a plane and fly too far to a new country.
I was checking on my head to find a song about happiness or that make me feel happy and, at the end, I found one that talk about simply happy moments...
I think everyone who is over 30 years will recognize it:
MY FAVORITE THINGS
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things
When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad
(From de film "The Sound on Music", in Spain "Sonrisas y Lágrimas")
(You don't have to think about Björk's version, is is very good but infinitely sad...)
