pronunciation -- /'hapenis/

happiness is being able to see good in any situation.

happiness lies within you, only you can unleash it fully.

seeing others smile makes me truely happy. seeing others loving their own life makes me happy.

helping others out, letting them know they are amazing, giving advice, being a good friend, serving someone, being there for someone in a time of need, trying to make a difference, showing you care, telling someone you simply love them-- all these bring happiness.

don't ever hate yourself, or anyone else. heavenly father created all of us, we all have our weaknesses, but that makes us human beings. what is wrong with being imperfect? we all have imperfections. so why instead of wanting to cover them up, why don't we embrace them. show them off, let the world know, this is me. i am imperfect in so many ways, but i love it, because i know that it makes me special and different. and through my many, many imperfections i can be myself more, and let my happiness shine through.

great examples of people who are happy (to me):

(someone who loves life, enjoys to laugh, and make every moment rememerable. who takes risks, smiles when everything is horribly wrong, they don't care what someone thinks as long as they are content with themselves. someone who loves their heavenly father more than anything. and would do anything to make him proud. to be his example of someone who is happy.)

don't wish to be someone else, don't try to be phenomenal or amazing or inspiring. because through your happiness, you will find out just how to be a person you want to be. you will become amazing, phenomenal and inspiring. and people will look up to your example. all because you were happy.
