That will be the most fulfilling desire in our lives if we could live by these simple rules:

"
Choose your friends wisely, don't hold grudges,
anything worth having doesn't come easy... when one fudges.
Don't be jealous of success, let others be judges,
to live a happy life, with less strife, no begrudges."
Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest.

This work has reached the exceptional level

Nice entry for the contest, a rhymed poem of at least 3 stanzas about what makes you happy. You came with a (considerably) modified quatrain, with in each stanza one rhyming end-sound in each line.
Interesting, and it worked well for me to see what makes a man happy.

    Marjon, Please know how much I do value this six-star validation! Thank you!
    I enjoyed stretching the quatrain with this. Have a great week!

How clever is this! I love, love, love it. You are my kind of poet.
Did you invent this format? If so, congratulations. Good luck with the contest
Have I mentioned that I love the poem?

    Yes, I like to stretch the poetic styles to see what can be experienced for the writer and the reader

I think you had some really good ideas and describe happiness very well. I found it a little confusing the way ideas seemed to repeat themselves, or the words did, for example repeating "for granted'
