happiness is ....

happiness is ... that's a seventies thing i think ... didn't we all have tshirts that said "happiness is ___" ... my recollection is of the peanuts' linus ... sitting there with his blanket .... happiness is a thumb and a blanket .... that might have been on a pillowcase ... mom, do you remember that? (we'll see if she's reading) .... or lucy ... happiness is a warm puppy ... and she's hugging on snoopy ... who doesn't look too into it ... right?

i think palmer sondreal was a journalist .... and i think he's trying to tell us to stop worrying about happiness and just be happy ... if you have to think about it and wonder about it and worry about it, you probably won't be that happy .... he's clearly not of this era, where everyone (including MOI) talks (or blogs or tweets)  about happiness and thereby they are probably thinking about whether they are or how to be more so ....
