Happy

A father was arguing with his son for wanting to marry a woman of whom he did not approve.
“I can find you a girl who is rich, young and beautiful.”
“No, father, I want to marry Sarah.”
“And why do you insist on marrying Sarah?”
“We are in love with each other, father, and I believe she will make me happy.”
“Well, and if she makes you happy – what good will it do?”

Cute story with a powerful truth.   It is true so people are good companions for life’s journey but no one should make us happy or sad.  We find it within ourselves.

Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
