The time to be happy is now and the place to be happy is here..
N the way to be happy is to make someone happy
And to have a little heaven right here..
And to have a little heaven right here..
I used to hear this song on Repeat mode then. Those days I was always happy…and then…...
I grew up.
Its very difficult to get a rickshaw from Vile Parle-West station. Yesterday I just happened to get one soon. I was goin to Irla, when I saw an aunty waiting for a rickshaw. I asked her where she was headed, and since she wanted to get down after me, offered her to come along. She profusely thanked me, but directed the rickshaw in such a way that she got down first and I was left with a long detour of that area. She paid, obviously! But still, sometimes, making someone happy doesn’t ensure it makes you happy too.
But yes, making someone happy does make you happy more often than not.
In today’s times when some & most of us are grappling with so many things at a time. It’s a challenge to be happy, forget making some one else happy. Long distance relationships, tyrant bosses, heartbreaks, dealines, local train travel, May heat, an unfriendly metabolism rate, US recession, bad hair days, depletion of the ozone layer so on n so forth..not to forget uncooperative rickshaw-walas..
Some days ago, I opened the pantry door for the pantry boy who serves us Tea/Coffee everyday as his hands were laden with trays. He grinned, and I was happy.
Then one day I gave up my difficultly procured rickshaw to an elderly lady going in the opposite direction. She just touched my head and smiled. I was happy.
The other day, I called up my friend from the US, who was going through a difficult period (no guesses reqd: Love Life) and shared her woes for atleast an hour. She was relieved, so was my Vodafone postpaid. And I was happy.
Greatly these days I have begun to believe its more about making others happy. Happiness is a derivative, and its underlying is the people around us, some known to us, yet many others simply strangers.
One good deed a day, however small, however insignificant is all it takes for…………………………..
HAPPINESS.

Hey there....what i realy wanted to know was if you know the origin of this song (group/singer)I used to listen to it as a child too but lost the album somehow. Was wondering if you'd be able to help.
Thanks
I used to listen to the song too. And now I'm searching all over for the collection this song came in. Do you have it by any chance? The collection I had was "Time to be Happy" I think. Its been over 20 yrs now.
Hey same here. We had 4 albums and we're looking for the origin of these songs. The album names are Time to be Happy, Sweet Dreams Tonight, Magic of Love and Little things. Anyone know where to find them?
same here - this is such a obscure song that I never really thought I would come across anyone who has enjoyed this; but I have sweet memories of listening to this one endlessly. And a very apt song too - at the end of th day those small acts of helping make u happy. I remember finding a lost credit card in a taxi at Sion. Me and tha taxiwala first tried to find the lady who had lost it (she had just got down some time back)and when we couldn't we simply got it blocked and returned to the nearest SBI branch. Didn't get me anything - but I remembering feeling very happy.
I am searching for that album for really long time...I used to listen to it when I was a kid. i loved the song 'tell me please story daddy...can you post it here if you happen to find it.
OK I know this is a really old thread, but I was looking for info on the same album today and came across this blog post. Just thought I'd let you guys know I found the songs - the albums are by The Family International.

We used to sing this in primary school,I mean the full bunch of 60girls.That was 14yrs ago.I passed out of high school a month ago,and coming across an old school magazine I remembered this song I sang towards the beginin of an unforgettable 14-year journey in an institution I spent 14yrs at.I feel solo nostalgic, and yet I can't stop thinking there's more to this song.I'm sure we sang more than this,but I can neither remember,nor find any longed lyrics than what I remember:
The time to be happy is now,
the place to be happy is here,
And the way to be happy is to make others happy and you'll have a little heaven down here.
Oh yes,oh yes.There's something more than gold!
Oh yes oh yes,there's something more than gold in my soul,
There's something more than gold.
If anyone knows more,please, please tell me!
