How Simple...

Well, today I had gotten the chance to finally see one of my very good friends. We walked home together and because of the scorching hot day; we got ice cream. After just simply walking, laughing, enjoying our sugary goodness and tanning under the hot sun; it really hit me how little one needs for happiness. To be genuinely happy we need so very little; love, laughs, adventure. Just a smile, a good word. Yet all we do, as humans, is ask for things. Wanting. Always. Weather it may be materialistic or physical. We always require something to make us happy. Well, what we think will make us happy, not what actually does. Just walking along the hot pavement with the bright sun in our eyes; I felt content. Just talking about life and making jokes; I felt happy. As If I didn't want anything more; just a friend. And laughter. How ridiculously simple.
