Happy? Most of the time? Happiness is always a fleeting thing," he said, "It never rests upon anyone as a permanent state, though many of us persist in believing in the foolish idea that if this would just happen or that we would be happy for the rest of our lives. I know moments of happiness just as most other people do. Perhaps I have learned to find it in ways that would pass some people by.

And this moment brings me happiness. — Mary Balogh

Emotions I've been working hard to hold back all summer start to spill out of me as I pull Elliott's mouth toward my own.
