If you want to be happy, be.
“If you want to be happy, be.”
Happiness is an intriguing topic for me – personally. I often ask myself: “What makes people happy?”, “What makes me happy?” “What could be one simple thing that makes everyone happy?”
That beautiful day in October, I was sitting on a low stool by the street, drinking some delicious lime ice tea in Hanoi - my hometown. A street vendor passed by. The moment I saw her huge bundle of balloons - I knew this is it! Balloons make me happy – whether just seeing them in the street or buying some. Balloons make my two nieces, and probably any other kid, extremely happy. And I am sure just looking at them makes many of us feel happy too!
I’ve lived in South East Asia, the Middle East, the East Coast and now the West Coast. I’ve traveled to many places and I love exploring and learning about different cultures. I’ve spent a lot of time going to school, undergrad and grad; I’ve earned as many degrees as I could, I’ve worked in different industries; in big companies and small. I’ve gone through all of those to realize that what I enjoy the most is playing with clay, making balloons with my bare hands - in my tiny studio. I also notice that people always have a big smile on their faces when they see my balloons. It happens every single time – no exception, and it makes me happy – sooo happy!
I hope you enjoy my shop – even if you’re just looking around. If you happen to purchase a balloon from me - thank you; I hope it will make you smile whenever you look at it. And the same with your family, friends, anyone who will see it.
Happiness is priceless, be happy!
