Happiness Tips, Straight from the Happiest Man in the World

GAZA CITY, GAZA - JUNE 13: A young Palastinian boy laughs as the waves rush towards him on Gaza beach on June 13, 2015 in Gaza City, Gaza. Palestinians are taking the opportunity to relax and enjoy picnics on Gaza beach before the holy month of Ramadan which starts next week. Thousands of Palestinians descend on the 75km sandy beach of Gaza each day to relax, fish and escape the noise and heat of the city. The devastation across Gaza can still be seen nearly one year on from the 2014 conflict between Israel and Palestinian militants. Money pledged by the international community six months ago to rebuild Gaza has not materialised leaving many Palestinians impoverished and still suffering with the poor economy.
