Happiness
Happens
August is National
Happiness Happens Month!
In 1998, Pamela Gail
Johnson founded the Secret
Society of Happy People and
the celebration in August,
Admit You’re Happy
Month. In 2004, rethinking
the event and to combat
world changes, the society
made a sweeping effort to
nationalize the event. With
a little help from a mention
in Newsweek magazine, the
month-long holiday is now
recognized by 19 states and
the not-so-secret society has
thousands of members all
over the world. The
Secret Society of Happy
People encourages people to
recognize that “in hard
times in our lives and in the
world, from economic to
global challenges, as well as
personal and family
challenges...,” happiness
still happens.
Pamela Gail Johnson was
named a semi-finalist in the
search for the next Global
Thought Leader in 2013.
