If you believe in happiness you will find more to be happy about.

In the play, Peter Pan, Tinkerbelle lives when the children clap. As adults, we are suspicious of anyone who promises us something if we would only believe. For example, the price of this stock would rise if you would only believe hard enough. It is either unfounded optimism or an attempt to scam us.

The scientific research shows that happier people do better on tests, are healthier, live longer, and give more back to their community. Is this too good to be true? Could you reap all these benefits, just by believing in happiness?

I believe in happiness. I believe I am a better person- a more loving, giving, creative person when I am happy. I believe the more happy people there are in the world, the healthier our planet will be. You can read about a day when happiness transformed my world in Leos at the Castaways.

Do you have a story to share about how happiness turned your day or your life around? Do you believe in happiness? Now you can share your stories on Happy Life U in our new About You area. Let us know what you think.

So, if you are happy and you know it, clap your hands. Take the Tinkerbelle Challenge and see if the benefits of happiness are true for you…

If you believe in happiness you will find more to be happy about.
