According to the recent survey, only forty percent of children in our school feel happy. Why?

Do you know what “happiness” means? A lot of money? No homework every day? High marks or anything else?

   In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are happiness. If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you. All these can’t be bought with money. It’s a feeling of your heart. When you come across difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself.
