Happiness is...

@gano ....life is nothing but surprises...it's just the frequency, nature, and timing.

Knowing ahead when one goes dead screws up the whole damn concept.

Happiness is getting kicked out of the cop car. In 1971, 18 year old me hitch  hiking from Hammond to Baton Rouge with two doobies in a Marlboro pack and a lid in my sock. Got dropped off at my exit in Baton Rouge and start walking to my friends house. Got about 20 yds down the exit ramp and a state trooper pulls up along side  and says *get in*. I got in his car. I was scared schitless! He doesn’t say a word to me but immediately gets on his radio and asked dispatch for suspect description. He then gives me a hard look and says *get out*. With my heart pounding, I scrammed like a rat from a cat.

Happiness is being content with what you have - career, family,  house, and audio system.  And not wanting more.

.. an afterwork trip to the record store with my father’s day gift certificate. Then finding a 1984 King Crimson Three of a Perfect Pair Winchester pressing that played NM what I got home.

Yes I've seen it a couple of times Happness is a warm gun...Be happy don't worry...love the music that's being played on your systems....just take your head phones off...like the people who walk or jog or run....and have ear pieces or head phones on....just walk or run....with out ,music or stories or books,being read to you....listen to the sounds of the world you walking at....let your ears rest....be natural no sounds...
