3. Perspectives

Happiness for me is...

  • 🐾...seeing my cat or any other little animal.
  • 📖...getting lost in the world of a great fantasy book.
  • ...spending time with my friends, laughing and forgetting every worry.

Happiness is subjective! Here is what brings joy to those around me:

My Mother: Finding a great Korean drama.
My Father: Listening to 80s classics.
My Friend: Finding "treasures" at a thrift store.

6. THE LAYERS OF HAPPINESS

Exploring Wordplay & Meaning

While "Happiness" may seem like a simple noun, exploring its different forms helps us define its boundaries and its true potential:

  • ✨ **The Shadow (Unhappy):** To understand light, we must know the shadow. Unhappiness is not just the absence of joy, but the space where we learn to seek it again.
  • ✨ **The Spark (To Gladden):** Happiness is an active verb. It is a spark we create for others and ourselves—a small action that creates ripples of positivity.
  • ✨ **The Potential (Happiable):** Though rarely used, this word reminds us that every soul has the capacity to be filled with light. It represents an open door to joy.
