Hope for happiness, everyone always has, but each person will hope for different happiness; Therefore, if we wish for happiness and go in the right direction, it will bring lasting happiness; the opposite is unhappiness, suffering.

The monk analyzed to understand conditions that create a happy and peaceful life. He talked about four beautiful conditions to have a good life, such as: sorry knowing, hope forgiving, loving, and thanking all.

In the afternoon, little learners participated in the memorization contest "Gratitude Lesson" and received prizes. After that, they participated in outdoor game activities.

In a dignified atmosphere after Ullambana chanting in the evening, under shimmering lights with a sincere heart, little learners released lanterns with gratitude for the sacred family, about good conditions that have supported their steps in life. The participants secretly vow to be an obedient son, study hard, live in the life with good personality and right character. The candle symbolizes the light of wisdom, love, bringing peaceful energy to all directions, praying to all sentient beings to reduce suffering, peace and happiness at home.
