Happy International Day of Happiness

The latest and greatest United Nations Day is today, March 20th -- the International Day of Happiness, a celebration declared by the U.N. General Assembly a couple of years ago.  The General Assembly adopted Resolution 66/281 in July 2012 to  proclaim March 20 as the International Day of Happiness, recognizing the relevance of happiness and well-being as universal goals and aspirations in the lives of human beings around the world and the importance of their recognition in public policy objectives.

Here's a video of Ban KiMoon celebrating the #HappySoundsLike Campaign.  And when you're done watching that, click here to visit the United Nations Page on the International Day of Happiness.
