Sometimes happiness is your morning cup of coffee. Sometimes it is the smell in the street after it rains, or your favourite song played on repeat for three hours straight. Sometimes happiness is your friend’s laughter or the way the sky looks through the trees in your favourite park. If it keeps you going, if it ignited something within you, it doesn’t matter how small or grand it is. Just hold on to it. Let it save you.
