Did you know that tomorrow is International Day of Happiness? I never knew it existed until now, but I’m glad that I discovered it! It’s been a year since the pandemic started and the world became filled with chaos and tragedy. Now a year later, we’re still in a pandemic, but there’s now some form of hope forming with a vaccine being put in place.

With the world still being unable to go back to normalcy, I think acknowledging a day of happiness is what the world needs. There is so much going on that it has become easier to ignore the little things that bring us joy because they’re being clouded by all of the bad.

Although tomorrow is international day of happiness, you don’t need a special day to be grateful for all of the things that make you happy. Today, I’m sharing some of the different things that make me happy and bring me joy!
