In conclusion, my keys to happiness are my family, my pet, and relaxation. It's hard to describe or to really say why these three things make me happy, I just get a feeling of joy when I see my family and pet and when I experience relaxation.

Relaxation
When I am relaxing,  I either read a book or I watch TV.  I really love relaxing and sleeping because of how tired I am from school and homework. After getting through all of my homework, I just want to relax and calm myself down from the day.  It's important to relax so that i don't get too stressed and that I remain happy. It is also important to have a special person to talk to when I need to relax. This person is my mom.

Family
My mom, dad, and my grandmothers are my close family. They help support me if I need anything and they also support me during chorus concerts and baseball games. It is important to have a close family because they give you emotional strength and support. I appreciate everything they do for me and I am happy they are in my life.

Pets
I am lucky to have a very unique pet, a ferret. Having a pet helps me be happy because my ferret, Fred is playful. He is also adorable and he also senses when I am sad and comes over to me and licks me. Pet owners love their pets like children. Their pets help them be more outgoing, have confidence in themselves, and get exercise.
