Quotes About Being Happy to Celebrate International Day of Happiness

Every year on March 20, the United Nations celebrates the International Day of Happiness. With this in mind, and because we’re all about spreading joy and #pawsitivevibes, we thought we’d compile a list of our favorite quotes about happiness to brighten your day.

According to International Day Of Happiness Founder Jayme Illien, “the 2022 International Day of Happiness theme, Happiness For All, Ukraine, is a call to action to all people, all nations, the United Nations, and all humanity to stand with the people, government, and country of Ukraine, and ultimately, to stand for the happiness of all civilization, and all humankind.”
