Happy moments

The International Day of Happiness was celebrated worlwide on 20^th March . It has been celebrated since 2013 thanks to a resolution of the United Nations as a way to recognise the importance of happiness in the lives of people around the world.

It is difficult to define happiness – probably the most sought-after condition – but most of us can recognise it easily. When the 90^th  Awards ceremony was held on 4^th March  and the winners were presented with their awards, they were happy, that´s for sure. Some could be more emotional than others but all of them must have felt elated at the idea of having achieved such an honour.

Sam Rockwell ( winner of Best Supporting Actor award for Three BillboardsOutside Ebbing, Missouri ), Frances McDormand (winner of Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading role in Three BillboardsOutside Ebbing, Missouri ),  Allison Janney (winner of Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting role in I, Tonya) and Gary Oldman (winner of Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading role in Darkest Hour).

Films, good films  or just the films that we enjoy watching make a big impact on our lives, sometimes it is a short impact or it can be a lasting one but what we can´t deny is that they manage to change our lives for a while and sometimes, just the mere act of watching a film in front of the big screen provides us with, at least, a few happy moments: it may be an ephemeral feeling of happiness but that doesn´t mean that it isn´t worth it.

Go to the cinema, watch your favourite film once more, read the reviews and choose a film or choose a film at random, just watch a film and enjoy the story and, by doing so, create your own happy moments.
