Kid talk about Happiness

As i was getting ready for our dentist appointment, my 4 year old daughter made this comment..

Daughter: mom, why can’t God give happiness to all the people?

I: what do u mean?

Daughter: well, if everyone is happy on earth then we will have no more quarrels, no protests….it will be a very beautiful place, everybody will be helping each other…

I: yes, true but we need balance…. That is why we have happiness and sadness, goodness and badness….

Daughter: right! We just have to be able to know what is right from wrong….

  1. You have a smart daughter! Everything has its opposites so that we may use our free agency to choose for ourselves. We get to choose happiness for ourselves.
