This is true because the text states, "Happiness lands on the roof of the next house, singing, and disappears when it wants to" This shows that  Happiness appears out of nowhere and makes you feel good but it leaves randomly. Moreover, I believe this is the theme because the text tells us, "Everything has a life of its own" This shows that everything, such as emotions, can't be controlled by others. It appears and leaves whenever it wants to. ]]> 2022-03-24 12:32:42 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/77l1symlzl78l2qw/wish/2111746887 https://padlet.com/brizard4/77l1symlzl78l2qw/wish/2111750676          In the passage "So Much Happiness" the poet coveys the theme through comparing happiness and sadness. The theme of the passage is that you can't control happiness. For example, when it states, "Happiness lands on the roof of the next house, singing, and disappears when it wants to." This shows that you can't control happiness since it is temporary, you can't control when it comes or goes. Another piece of evidence is when it states, "Since there is no place large enough to contain so much happiness, you shrug, you raise your hands, and it flows out of you into everything you touch. You are not responsible." This explains that happiness is not your responsibility because it is out of your control. To conclude that theme of the passage is that you can't control happiness. ]]> 2022-03-24 12:35:01 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/77l1symlzl78l2qw/wish/2111750676 https://padlet.com/brizard4/77l1symlzl78l2qw/wish/2111751418    The theme of the poem" So much Happiness is that  happiness controls it's self .

A piece of evidence from the text is on line 6-7 in verse 2 where it says, "But happiness floats. It doesn't need anything to hold it down." And another piece of evidence that works with this can be found on line 9-10 in the same verse where it says, "Happiness lands on the roof of the next house, singing, and disappears when it wants to." Those two pieces of evidence work together to convey that happiness is a fleeting emotion and to embrace it while you can because it can go away at a moments notice. One last piece of evidence that supports the claim can be found on lines 20-23 in verse 5 where it states, "Since there is no place large enough to contain so much happiness, you shrug, you raise your hands, and it flows out of you into everything you touch." This supports the claim because it conveys that the narrator cannot hold back or figure out what to do with their happiness and so they choose to give in and just embrace the fact they are happy. In conclusion, the theme of "So Much Happiness" is to embrace your happiness while it is there.]]> 2022-03-24 12:36:28 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/77l1symlzl78l2qw/wish/2111752974 https://padlet.com/brizard4/77l1symlzl78l2qw/wish/2111753747    In the story "So Much Happiness" the theme is that happiness comes and goes. This is because Shihab states "Happiness lands on the roof of the next house, singing, and disappears when it wants to".

This mean that Happiness is not forever and not temporary. To sum it up this is why the theme of the story is happiness comes and goes. ]]> 2022-03-24 12:36:57 UTC https://padlet.com/brizard4/77l1symlzl78l2qw/wish/2111753747 https://padlet.com/brizard4/77l1symlzl78l2qw/wish/2111754192     The theme that can be learned from "So Much Happiness" is that happiness is uncontrollable; it comes and goes.
