Happiness - Unnati Jamdar

When I was a young kid, I always wanted a pet. I wanted a cat or a dog, but sadly my parents won't allow me. One fine day a cat suddenly appeared and started meowing. I was in shock; the poor cat was sitting alone and was searching for food. I couldn't resist, so my friends and I decided to comfort her. From that day onwards, she was our best friend, and within a couple of days, my family was ready to adopt the cat. This was where my happiness increased, and now she is a part of our family.

Happiness - Anushri Palnitkar

We all are happy in our lives, with my point of view

But there are my friends who feel that they are not happy,

But only a few.

Once my friend was in the garden,

And was thinking alone in her freedom

We asked here the reason

And she said," I love mangoes but this is not the season."

The second day she was at the same place,

Looking at us with a weird face

We asked her the reason

And she answered," I love social studies but because of studying social studies

I don't get time to play with my buddies.

The third day at the same place

She was sitting with an awful face

We asked her the reason

She replied," I love chocolates madly

But because of that, I am getting fat very badly

After this, I went to her house

And told her that being always sad will not work

And reminded her of the quote that will help her to be successful

And that was

Happiness is the key to success.

Fun - Aria Gupta

"You don't stop playing because you get old. You get old because you stop playing".

I think everybody likes to have fun more than work. But why are some things fun while others are not? Work may be stressful and create anxiety, while fun is full of joy. One way to make work fun is to forget all that stress and anxiety; instead, think about the joy you feel when you're having fun. Another way to make work fun is to gamify it. For example, if you have to finish tons of homework, I make a fairy list for all the assignments. After doing one, you may ask an imaginary fairy to grant a wish, a small one like watching TV for 30 minutes or playing with your friends for an hour. Fun is compelling in motivation, so you should add some fun to work.
