Happy is when you feel really good inside because something nice happened or because you're doing something you love.
Imagine you just finished playing your favorite game and won, that's happy! It’s like when you get a big, warm hug from someone who loves you. You feel all warm and bright on the inside.

How You Know You're Happy

So next time you feel really good inside, remember: that’s happy!
