For happiness one needs security, but joy can spring like a flower even from the cliffs of despair.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Reflection:
What is the difference between happiness and joy? Which would you rather have if you had to choose?



Memoir Prompt:
Think of a time when you knew you were happy. Think of a time when you experienced sudden, piercing joy. Describe them in detail.

Happiness for me is a feeling that will not stay longer in our heart. Yes, it’s cool that you feel happy, but in regards to that happiness is just a feeling that it can be lost in a period of time. For example, you’re happy because you have a lot of money. But after spending your money buying things that you like what will be happening? It’s just the same you will be sad because days, month or year you will realize you have no money to buy for the food, things and medicine that you really need. Unlike joy, is a feeling that take longer or maybe for a lifetime. Why? Let me give an example, in a friendship, they can give you joy that money can’t buy. You can have a car or a house, but friendship you can’t buy that. Even though sometimes you have trouble with your friends, but at the end of the day you will see and feel after those bad happenings, your friends are still there for you to support and give you joy that you ever need.

I agree with you. Sometimes everybody have such days when we want to hide something personal from others but to express our soul. Also I understand how difficult it is to find the right nail master. The best receipt is to be yourself every time.
