Seriously?
Who on earth came up with the idea of a Worldwide International Day of Happiness?
Well, I can tell you it was someone who was born into a circumstance that most of us would not wish for!
The idea of this International Happiness Day was suggested however, to ‘increase’ happiness. - Go figure!
Anyhow, the United Nations accepted the proposal and so now, it’s a thing!
Celebrating happiness, all over the globe, every March.
And its aim? Well, to make people around the world realise the importance of happiness “within their [own] lives,” of course!
And that’s what I want to talk about today.
Happiness, within life, whatever that life looks like. Your life, whatever it may bring.
So, what if your life is indeed one big ball of sad?
Happiness, in all honesty may seem unreachable, or to some, even unthinkable.
I mean, is finding the happy amidst dreadful circumstances even achievable?
What is it? What does it look like? How do we make it last? How can we capture it so we can endure through the tough times, with it?
Perhaps there is something deeper than just ‘temporary happy’ or ‘faking’ the happy.
An inner joy, that is inexpressible. Indescribable. Unspeakable.
A continual joy that brings real strength for times of weakness, or even grief and a peace that surpasses all understanding, amidst a sad circumstantial season or despite a dire situation.
I found it. You can too.
