to be happy

I bumped into her again today,
It had been a while and I was wondering whether she was okay.
It was so nice to see her.

Last time I saw her it made me wonder whether she's ill,
and I worried.
Without even really knowing her,
without a clue of what is going on in her life,
even if she's always smiling whenever I see her, I sometimes worry.

She's the kindest person.
She spreads a certain light,
a warmth wherever she goes.
She's one of those people,
that you cannot not like,
that invites you in,
without doing anything.
Just by being.

It was so nice seeing her again today.
She looked vibrant, rested and healthy.
I told her she looked great and she lit up and smiled that warm smile,
and looked so happy.

And I was happy!
