It feels good to be happy right?
Why not share the happiness at WaterPark Place this Friday and join us for some fun activities and treats in the Mezzanine and Food Court!
Happiness is what we all strive for – what the media, society and every self-help book and guru out there tells us to seek.
So how do we truly reach a state of happiness and stay there?
Without the down times in life, it would be hard to enjoy the up times.
It would be very odd if we all walked around like the Stepford wives, perpetually smiling…
International Day of Happiness celebrated on March 20th, is not about superficial and materialistic happiness but rather it is about recognizing that ‘progress’ should be about increasing human happiness and wellbeing, not just growing the economy.
“In 2011, the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution which recognised happiness as a “fundamental human goal” and called for “a more inclusive, equitable and balanced approach to economic growth that promotes the happiness and well-being of all peoples”.
In 2012 the first ever UN conference on Happiness took place and the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution which decreed that the International Day of Happiness would be observed every year on 20 March. It was celebrated for the first time in 2013″.

It comes as no surprise that the number one way people describe experiencing happiness is from giving and doing things for others.
