Happiness lies in the joy of achievement and the thrill of creative effort. – Franklin D. Roosevelt.

Happiness can come from a lot of different sources.  There is no doubt about this.  Love can bring happiness, so can success.  A sunny day can make you happy or a rainy day.  We all find our happiness in different ways and in different places.  But one of the greatest ways to find happiness is in the creation of something.  You don’t have to create a work of art that is worthy of hanging in the Louvre.  Creativity can be shown in many ways.  Cooking a meal can be a form of creativity.  So can making a snow angel.  It’s all in what gives you pleasure.  So why not create something and revel in the happiness your accomplishment brings you.
