A Happy Story

Fate can sometimes do strange things. It can bring two people together who are never to be with each other and make them live almost perfect lives and then it changes their lives in a way that is almost unimaginable. Let me tell you a story that was truly inspired by fate.

Samantha and Jose were married to each other. They were childhood sweethearts, actually best friends. Both of them loved someone else, but their families insisted them to get More

Conversing with a horse

Boarding school memories make happy recalling and provide a soothing balm when times get packed, hurried and harried. College life was spent as a boarder and it was there that we were introduced to the art of horse riding. Equestrian, the word we were taught (the other one being equine liability), was to teach us the ability to converse with an animal in general and the horse in particular.

The initial initiation days to this art was indeed very More

Beloved Play-Dough Stains

Play-Dough on the carpet stuck in and dried, nearly impossible to remove with out insane elbow grease, intense soaking and a little bit of toothpaste. The hated Play-Dough sits there staring at you, daring you to remove it from the room. As you begin to scrub and scrape and soak your start to remember back. Three months ago your 13 month old decided he wanted to know what was in that little can that smelled so good. He refused to More

A couple of days ago, watching a movie made me realize how cute kids can actually be. Their remarks and reactions are not only unpredictable, but are so inherently innocent that it brings a smile on your face. The movie itself was a sweet, romantic comedy based on a father daughter relationship.

Can laughing really be good for you?…

We currently live in a world where there is a lot of worries, from general mental health to home equity release rates, everybody seems to have something that they are worried about. So what do we do about it?

Laughing in one sense is great for the body, be it from watching your favourite sitcom on the television or when a mate tells you a joke that has you in fits. You feel good inside after a good laugh, having More

Happiness

A few of us internet savvy friends were discussing the other day all of the complete crap this is on the internet, and after realizing that we were the people who put a lot of the crap online, we thought that it was about time to change that. So we decided to buy up a domain and do an experiment.

Welcome to the Happiness Project. What if there was a website that was just about happiness, anything that makes people smile, images, news, stories from a friend of a friend? That’s what this is, just to remind people that a smile, even in this internet driven world, is not overrated. Ever.
