WHAT IS HAPPINESS TO ME?
 

Happiness to me is knowing that every day I have a great opportunity to contribute to my community and to the world in general. Every morning I'm grateful to the Lord for giving me the opportunity to make a lasting impression in other people's lives.

I have a great sense of humor! I'm intelligent and loving and caring. I am fascinated by the similarities of people around the world regardless of their cultures and races. I don't focus on people's differences.

 

Everybody likes me because I'm funny, straight-forward, and impeccably honest. I like to validate people in anyway that I can. I strongly believe that it is a natural human nature to long for validation.
 

I like to help. It gives me so much joy and heart's contentment to be able to make a difference in other people's lives, especially the less fortunate.

I believe that the comfort of the students in my classroom is very vital. When the students are at ease with their teacher and with one another they learn much better.
