In this paper, I will focus on the thing that makes me happy. There are several things in the world that makes different people happy in their own ways. Some people like food, some people like to travel, some people are happy with their achievements in their professional lives and some love to be happy by making other happy (Kringelbach and Berridge 2018). It has always been one of my most innate desires to be happy by seeing smile on the face of others.

I have always cherished in helping the poor and needy. I feel there are millions of deprived people and they have no reason to smile. However, they have every right to smile. I feel no one can make me cry or sad if I choose to smile. I have always been that kind of person who has chosen happiness and positivity in every field.

I let go all the negativities in life and this motivates me to undertake any challenge. I become happy when I am able to defeat the challenge and succeed in my goal. I believe this happiness can be shared with others both in professional and personal context.

I have a passion for working for poor and needy people in the society. I used to be sad in my childhood when I saw beggars on streets without food, clothes and shelter. I had a goal set in my mind that I would come forward to help these people with all my might so I can bring happiness in their faces (Shin et al. 2018). I learned to take my responsibility of life from my youth since there was some financial crisis. In spite of living in a gloomy environment,

I always wanted to be happy in my present and future. At the beginning, I felt miserable and hopeless. On the other hand, I had to be pretty confident about overcoming all the odds to bring the smile back to all my family members (Ricard 2015). I toiled very hard and I showed my determination with happiness in my mind because I was doing something for my family.

I was very happy when I was able to fulfill my responsibilities. The biggest reason for my happiness was the fact that I could bring the happiness in the faces of my nearest people. I can proudly say that this makes me the happiest person on earth.

I have learnt from my past experiences that no one could make me happy except myself. I think this is absolutely correct. Kindness towards all people is the gateway of being happy in my opinion. Therefore, I would like to work for all the needy persons (Wilson et al. 2014). The act of helping poor children on the streets and giving food to old beggars on the street gives me immense pleasure and happiness. Lord Jesus Christ has also advised every human being to help their fellow human beings whenever they are in need. This will definitely do them good in return.
