There are very few avenues in our world that promote happiness, however when that does happen, it is incredible to view and be a part of.
Graphic Designer Stefan Sagmeister has created an entire gallery that is based on being happy. He uses multiple applications of media in order to get his point across. Sagmeister wants to spread the sense of euphoria that comes with actually being content with your life.
His collection is entitled The Happy Show, and that describes the exhibit perfectly. Sagmeister has used different sayings throughout his show including "every exit is an entrance," and he also uses gum balls to help determine how happy you are.
Many people walk through life without being thrilled with who they are, and it is important that people help to promote happiness.
