Happiness is a feeling that comes over you when you know life is good and you can't help but smile. It is a sense of well-being, joy or contentment when people are successful or safe or lucky, they feel happiness.
True happiness for me, is being able to make other people happy. putting a smile on the faces of the less privileged, the homeless, the orphan, the abused, and street kids. taking teenagers away from the street and giving them a home, Life, hope, and future.
I have had this dream since I was a child as a result of some of the things I saw, and never for once have I tried to change it. I've only be planning endlessly towards it because of my current situation, I have just been planning on it and I hope someday I would be able to go through with it.
The things I really need in place before I can really be happy is money I need lots of it. Not having the money I require to do or achieve some of my plans is painful for me. Some will say money can't bring one happiness but in my case I'll only continue to feel inadequate if I can't put what I need in place.

The first thing I need money for is a very big land where I will build a very big home like an orphanage. it's going to be home for the homeless. As a Nigerian living in Lagos, if you pass through Obalende under bridge early in the morning, you would weep seeing children some still sleeping and some trying to start the business of the day under the bridge. I usually feel a sharp pain in my heart when I see them and with God on my side I will take as many as I can out of the streets.
Inside the same compound, I would have a primary and secondary school, where the children in The orphanage and others can go to for free. We will employ very competent teachers that will teach them and before leaving secondary school, we would have gotten scholarship for them to go to the university.

Another thing is that after school everyday, each child would attend his skill acquisition classes where they will learn various things based on their talent, ranging from IT to plumbing, carpentry, farming, welding, creative arts and the likes.
It's going to be a non-governmental organisation and our primary aim will be to take kids out of the streets and give them a life, a little higher than an average Nigerian.
You can see now that I need money to achieve this. The money may not be mine alone alone, I also need people that will buy into my dream to help me achieve it.

I don't have all that yet, and it will cost me my time, energy, resources, finance but it's worth it.
I believe when I do this my joy would be unlimited. It would last a lifetime.
It will be a lifetime joy for me because my purpose is to make people happy. I Feel overly joyed anytime I can do it that I may not even feel hunger anymore.
So, that will give me the joy I so desire in life.
This is my response to Hive learners community weekly featured contents on the topic: True Happiness.
Thanks for stopping by, I really appreciate you.
For me, i believe true happiness comes when everyone around you can also share from your happiness which means by making them happy also because people can't be sad around and you can't render any help. That means the joy is not really served. what a nice post.
That is so true.
Thank you very much for your kind words and encouragement.
I really appreciate you.
You've got a large heart I must say, hardly we we come across most people whose happiness is driven from seeing other people happy, especially when it's even strangers and young children.
I wish you all the best in attaining the wealth you dream of.
Best wishes.

Thank you so much sis

With this, you will be able to achieve a level of happiness when you are able to get that money to get all these done. Money is important and without it, we cannot feel happy but also, we can strive to create happiness within without attaching any to external factors because doing that, such happiness cannot last.
Hmmm...
You are very correct.
Thank you very much
I respect and like your ideas. To do something for humanity is one of the best tasks on our land. I 'm sorry to hear about children that sleep under the bridges. Our governments should arrange a system for their care. An orphanage building will provide benefits to thousands of kids in Nigeria. I hope, your ideas will flourish and no orphan child will feel alone on this planet, have a nice day.
Thank you very much @aslamrer
It seems the government don't even care about them.
It's so disheartening and it brings tears 😭 to my eyes
Thanks for your nice comment.
You are amazing and everything you shared here are spot-on. I believe the world truly need people who are ready to genuinely use their wealth to build structures and systems that will create an enabling environment for people.
The plans you have are solid and I'm glad you already have such a plan. Nobody knows tomorrow. Who knows what you will wake up to tomorrow?
If you ever get to come across an insane amount of wealth, I genuinely believe that you already have good idea of how to use that to get all these stuff in place and functional.
Thank you so much for your kind words and encouragement, they mean so much to me.
I felt really good reading your comment.
May God bless you.
This is very thoughtful of you. There are many kids caught up in this predicament looking for someone to salvage their tough life. May your goals come to fruition.
Amen 🙏
Thank you very much for your kind words.
I really appreciate you.
