The 2 Key “Features” for Happiness – Merry Christmas to All
Apparently the longest and most reliable study ever made on the topic of happiness (by Harvard University), came to this conclusions. The two main reasons for happiness are:
- your relationships
- the ability not to care about those little things that happen and annoy us more than they should
So for this Christmas, I wish you all to have some time to invest in the first pillar of happiness, your relationships. May you have wonderful days with the people you love most.
As for the second pillar of happiness, if it ever happens that you are as stupid as me and go out for a shoot without SD cards, just breath in deeply, remember that much worst could happen, and try to enjoy the time and place you are in also without taking any pictures.
WHAT ABOUT MONEY?
Well, “Money” is not on the list of things that will give you true happiness in the long term. I guess that’s why we wisely get rid of it as quickly as possible in favor of new gear ;).
But jokes aside, while it’s true that money can’t buy happiness, a few dollars can make a whole lot of difference to some.
For example, this is what our friends at KNGO can do with the following amount:
- 20 Euro – one student is provided with a one-year supply of school books, folders, and pencils
- 50 Euro covers all costs for one student for 6 months
- 100 Euro gives a one-year scholarship to one student (that’s the option I just picked)
Running a project like this costs money (pay the teachers, pay for the school materials, etc). And they always have to work hard to raise the money every single year.
So I thought that maybe the FujiRumors community can help a bit.
You’d make me happy, if you donate even just 1 Dollar to them. Because if you all donate just one dollar, then at the end it will be a fantastic support for KNGO.
If you can, if possible, then feel free to donate.
It runs over KNGO Germany and 100% of your donation will be sent straight to Cambodia.
Thanks to everybody who decides to help KNGO.
Merry Christmas to all of you!

How do I know KNGO?
I was in Cambodia to make fair trade T-shirts made by the amazing guys at Tonle. During my travel I stumbled on KNGO and I loved their work so much that I decided right there to donate all profits from the T-shirt sales to them. We ended up raising $5,000 for them.
