Hay-Ku of the Day (Unreasonable Happiness)

Let's "cut to the chase"
By cutting out "The Story
Of Me" middleman.

Let's "Cut to the Joy"
By cutting out the "Me that
Says My" middleman.

The  "joy, happiness and satisfaction" that arises with the attainment of a long cherished desire or goal is not the result of having attained that particular object of desire, as normally supposed. But rather as a momentary revelation of One's Ever-Abiding Nature as the "Life, Light, Love, Joy and Peace" that any such "Holy Instant of Desirelessness" naturally reveals (or resurrects)

So, once and for all, why don't we finally cut to the chase, stop franchising and/or outsourcing the  "Innate Joy of Our Being" to the vagaries of temporal appearance (which is, quite literally, "selling our soul for a farthing"). And so cease to look for the "Naturally Overflowing Joy of Our Own Hearts" within, instead of  endlessly chasing it's "rainbow-like self-reflection" in the outer mirror of apparent circumstance.
