What does it mean to be happy?
Growing up I realize I dunno what it really means to be happy Is it having whole family or being with whom you like? Is it a situation? Some say it is a choice. What I want to know is how does it feel to be happy. Write in any form.

what it cost the Reaper to sow

There are lives that are charmed,

that fortune could hardly harm,

lives that from their beginning be

treasured beyond all esteem.

And few who live these dreams

wonder at what secures the seams,

what binds together the whole,

how blessed the favored soul.

But I endeavor to know

what it cost the Reaper to sow.

What lost the man by my side

to the affluence I pride?
