Happy International Happiness Day!

Happiness may mean something different to everyone, but the founder of the United Nations International Day of Happiness believes it is a "fundamental human right" for all.

The day, celebrated on 20 March, was created by United Nations special adviser Jayme Illien. He said happiness is a "goal for al human beings".

So we want to know - what's been your happiest moment of the year so far? Was it a hug from one of your family members? A reeeeally nice bowl of ice cream? Did you do well in something at school? Let us know in the comments!

  • Started horse riding in September. I'd been riding the same horse for weeks and we loved each other (Ginger) but then I was put on a different horse for 2 weeks. When I saw ginger again and rode her it was the happiest moment and I also got to spend a day with her grooming mucking out feeding mints. I was bullied at school for a long time primary and in secondary (I'm in yr 8) horse riding takes my mind off everything.

    I'm worried that because of coronavirus I might have to stop riding for a few months. Hope not ❤💓💖

    Thank you for coming into my life ❤🐴😍😄😘
