Analysis of happiness
the fool
you aspire for happiness
the wise you can not avoid grief
those who are neither fool nor wise
have their own domain
easily they pick up
fluently they reject
their vision is clear
they view things without lens power
they are easy flowing from corner to corner
for them happiness matters
unhappiness equally matters
the fool and the wise
the same hemisphere
they equally share.
