Happiness

half-heartedly-quote

After following a loooooonnnnngggg list of re-blogs, I think I’ve finally found the place where this quote was first written. Said half-heartedly:

When I was 5 years old, my mom always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down “happy.” They told me I didn’t understand the assignment and I told them they didn’t understand life.

I hope my future 5-year-old will be just as bold. :)

British scientific study finds that happiness really is contagious

December 8, 2008 @ 11:08 am

The British Medical Journal has found — via a scientific study — that being around happy people really does make one happier!

The study was based on the idea that a person’s state of mind could spread over time from one person to the next in a social group. I think I’ve always known this, but it’s always good to have scientific proof.
