Happiness

Hi! I'm Happiness. I'm the warm, bubbly feeling you get deep inside your tummy that makes you want to smile a super-big smile. I am the feeling of pure joy when you're laughing so hard you can't stop. I also show up when you get a big, warm hug from someone you love.

I love to pop up in all sorts of moments! You can find me everywhere. I was there when Mia felt so proud because she finally learned to tie her shoes all by herself. I showed up when Leo shared his favorite red crayon with a friend who didn't have one. I especially love visiting during birthday parties with cake and games. I'm also there when you're playing your favorite game or when you build the tallest block tower ever.

Sometimes my friend Sadness might visit if you scrape your knee, or Anger might stop by if something feels unfair. That's okay because all your feelings are important. I promise I'm never far away. After the tears dry or the stomps are all stomped out, I'll be waiting to come back. I might show up when you get a cool bandage or a comforting hug.

You can help me visit more often! I love showing up when you do something kind, when you try your best at something new, or just when you take a moment to notice the bright sunshine. I continue to help people today by reminding them of all the good things, big and small. Thinking about one happy memory can bring me bubbling right back up.
