Time to Rise | International Day of Happiness 2021

Although the country is still limited by quarantine restrictions, it does not mean we cannot celebrate the International Day of Happiness. It is the day when we remind each other that happiness is not out of reach – it surrounds us every day. Merely two years ago, two Žalgiris Arenas could not fit all of those who celebrate the Day of Happiness. Even if this year we cannot meet at one place at the same time, on the 20th of March let us celebrate happiness creatively! This period in our life is unusual to all of us. We had to accommodate to a new lifestyle in the blink of an eye, and that raises a great challenge to our emotional wellbeing. During the global pandemic, we have started to value things which we have taken for granted. Until the pandemic, it was normal to meet with friends, go to the cinema, restaurants, theatres, visit galleries and museums or watch basketball games in arenas filled with cheering fans. As we had to abstain from this for quite a while now, the overall level of happiness has decreased for many as well. That is why during this Day of Happiness we will discuss and pay special attention to our emotions and feelings. By inviting to rise, we invite to discover how to brighten our current everyday life together. This year’s Day of Happiness is a great opportunity for all of us to rise from our couches and greet the spring sun! For your ideas and wishes to participate, until the 5th of March please contact [email protected] and fill out the registration form: tiny.cc/LaimesDiena Photo by Martynas Plepys
