Happiness is a feeling of joy, satisfaction, love, and peace. If you want to stay healthy, you need to stay happy. The definition of happiness is different for different people. More broadly, it is often described as positiveness and fulfillment of life desires.
Today, 20 March 21, is the day when the world celebrates the International Day of Happiness.
Mahatma Gandhi said that Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.
Why we celebrate International Happiness Day?
Celebration of happiness day started in 2013, as the United Nations wants to spread the significance of happiness in people's lives worldwide. This day, the aim is to recognize the value and make the people understand that happiness is the most significant gift that you can gift to someone.
In the past few years, we have recorded many suicides of common people and celebrities too; this is because of dissatisfaction, contentment, stress, and no one to share their life problems. Continuous dissatisfaction and loneliness are the biggest reasons for depression.
