Day 223: Locked gates

 "Happiness is like those palaces in fairy tales whose gates are guarded by dragons: we must fight in order to conquer it" - Alexandre Dumas


Project 365: #223

These beautiful gates in the middle of nowhere were not guarded by dragons, but were padlocked...the modern form of dragons?  They must have once been a grand entrance to a happier place perhaps. With happiness, the choice is always ours. The easier path is to not fight for happiness, but this path is lonely and empty. We can choose daily to fight off the dragons, and keep joy in our hearts...happiness opens so many more gates down the line.
