What does this mean?
It’s a time to focus on the things that make us happy,
appreciate the things that bring us joy, and experience happiness in the small
things every day. #HappinessHappensMonth
Be as happy as you possibly can.
The Stoics of Ancient Greece found that happiness depends on
the quality of your thoughts. Yes: only happy thoughts here!
Some people believe that you can only be happy once you’ve
achieved everything you’ve ever wanted and that you can’t be happy if you have
problems in your life. That’s faulty thinking. Happiness is a choice. Happiness
is a life-long pursuit. You can find happiness in the darkest of places and
times.
You can learn how to be happy if you’re not a naturally
happy person. Take time in the day to journal (write down your thoughts and
feelings, or draw, whatever helps you to communicate with yourself), or to
meditate, to find that inner peace and figure out what makes you happy and what
keeps you from feeling joy.
For me, joy is waking up before my alarm goes off because one of my Rottweilers couldn’t wait one more moment to spend time with me and woke me by pressing their nose against mine. (Could be argued that they thought I’d stopped breathing and was checking for signs of life, but I prefer the idea of the good morning kiss.) You can see my beautiful furbabies on Instagram.
What brings you joy?

Oh! Very happy to see this post today. I had a medical procedure for pain. Today morning when I woke up, there was no pain. Very happy and shared it with doctors, family members and friends. Received happy messages in return. I am very happy to write this comment.
Well said!
Being out in Nature brings me Joy, I cannot be unhappy when I'm out in Natural Splendor.
I didn't know this! Interesting. What makes me happy are many things. One, a good walk/jog and exercises after that. Two, writing a blog post and publishing it. Three, listening to old favourite songs.
