Miss Ale I think that thgis quote means that when the moments of hapiness are when what do you think what you say and what you do because all this are things that you do. Sometimes when I say answers I feel happy because you feel proud of your self and when other people say answers why do have to be happy? All this are things that you do for peopl or for other things and also when you think or when you say or what you do it is fun!!!!!!!

Miss ALe: I think that this quote means that when you are happy you show it when you think for example of a person, may be you show you are happy becuase you say has happened. For example when you first tell every body that your new cousin or may be your sister or brother was born( in my case) you may feel a lot of happiness. Or even happines is in harmoney, and that makes you feell very good and that is something VERY SPECIAL!! I think and agry that HAPPINESS is the best way of feeling and will make you be more confortable where ever you are...
I RECOMEND YOU TO START AND FEEL MORE HAPPINESS EVERY DAY BECAUSE YUO WILL SEE THIS LOVELY CHANGE!!!
TRY IT AND ENJOY IT!!!
I THINK THIS IS A VERY VERY GOOD QUOTATION MISS ALE!!!
THANK YOU FOR INCLUDING IT!!
I WISH YOU PUT MORE OF THIS LOVELY AND HAPPY QUOTATIONS!!!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!
BYE BYE...!!!

Miss Ale:
I think the quote means that everything you do or say is something right and you need to be proud of what you do like if you do a good exam you will be very proud because you did something RIGHT! And the MOST IMPORTANT thing in the quote is THAT EVERYTHING YOU DO IS RIGHT and its better if you do mistakes because you learn about them. But if you do something right you do not learn anything because you already know it. Like when I was following the flag I felt proud because I did something right and that was my prize and for the other children to. I really love this quote!
Have a really nice weakend and hope you will have a nice friday without your students :-(

I think he means that you can get happiness by just being in harmony, so he gives all these examples, like talk in harmony etc.. etc..
But.. if you don't talk in happiness, people will treat you bad and they won't be happy with you! So if you talk bad to them you won't have harmony!! So it is better to talk in harmony for you to be happy.

Miss Ale, I think he means that if you treat people with harmony, happiness etc.. You will recive it back, But if you treat poeple in a bad mood, angry etc... they will treat you in that way. So it is always better to treat people good so they will apriciate you and will treat you good.

I think that Mahatma Gandhi meant that harmony has to be all over the world and that will mean happiness. What you think, what you say and what you do have to be in harmony because that way if everybody does that there will not be wars and that kind of stuff because you are not thinking or saying offensive things to the others. What you do has to be in harmony because if not you can hurt others feelings and you start fighting and that is not happines. Mahatma Gandhi said very well this quotation. Where did you find it??? All the world should be having fun and peaceful because if everybody cooperates a little bit and does what this person said everything would be much more peaceful and easier. For example when you fight with someone it is because you had bad thinking, or saying or doing and the other person is not happy with you so you start fighting. We should all start feeling happy cause that is when we are going to make a good change. If we all change our attitude and are happy all the time maybe we can change others attitude because sometimes people are unhappy because they see other people sad. WELL IN THE END WE ALL HAVE TO BE HAPPY AND WE WILL MAKE A GOOD CHANGE!!!!!!
See you soon,

Miss Ale, I think he meant that if you think in good things, you say good things and you do things, you will make other people happy and that will make you happy too, and you will only be happy if you make other people happy.

Miss Ale, I think this means, that you get happy when your body and your relationships are in harmony.
This means that if I say or think something that is not agresive, or some kind of "attack" of/to someone, I would be in harmony with him.

Good quotation

Ale, I think that this quote means that when you express yourself on a good way, Things always will go right, you just have to keep on going and showing the best if your best all the time. Always trying the best of you without giving up. All of us when we express with our senses showing our abilities or the best of our own, being happy and having a really good time, thats when you are showing your hapiness and helping others or everyone around yourself, feeling really well.

Miss ale . I think MAHATMA GANDHI meant to say that happines is the most important thing in the whole world. That happines is when something very important and good for you happens or to someone you love ,that happines is to be in peace and harmony and that we live in a WORLD of happines. EVERYTHING you say do or think is happines ALWAYS . Sometimes not everything is perfect and all in harmony but we do the best to be in to do it although in some places or countries there isn`t much happiness.We have to be happy and proud that unless the place where WE live is in peace NO MATTER WHAT OR WHEN we are happy at almost al times , and if we arent very happy we have all the people we love around us to help us and protect us and they can help us to be happy ,HAPPINES IS A VERY IMPORTANT FEELING THAT WE HAVE TO HAVE AT ALL TIMES !!

I think that what mahatma means is that you control your happines. You are the person that put your happines in "action" because only you can make feelings or emotions of youself, soo that means to say that you apply your happines to each moment that you want. so no body else than you can think how you feel in every single moment!. What you say in different ocations is depending in your hummor that you have in that time. And I think that if you are a real happy person , you should do things propper made . For me harmony has to do a lot with the word peace, and that is something that everybody has to make starting by you , NOW THAT I READ THIS I AM GOING TO BE VERY HAPPY (ja ja ja )

I think he means that happines is when what you do is in a calm and peaceful way and not in a hurry. He thinks that it is when you enjoy what you do and what you do is whith entusiasim and not doing it because you know you have to do it.

Well Miss Ale Im going to be honest really I dont have an idear but...if I try I dont have anything to loose so I think it means that happiness is what youuuu feel and do , think etc..all of that things you need to do them in harmony because that wouldnt be happiness without harmony!!Well I hope I got it correct which I don´t really think so.

I think that happines is when you want to have happines and you think you are happy. They dont have to tell you to be happy you have to change before they tell you.

Hi Miss Ale, I think he means that if you treat people well they will treat you well also. But if you treat poeple bad like if you are angry with them they will treat you bad too. That means that you would have a recompense for what you do So if you are a good person you will have a good recompense but if you are bad you would have a bad recompense. I think this quote means that for you to be happy you should have to be happy with every one. Treat good other people so they will treat you well also. I hope you add more posts and quotes evey week.

bye bye

here you have what he did and how he helped INDIA (HIS COUNTRY):

Gandhi first employed non-violent civil disobedience in South Africa, in the resident Indian community's struggle for civil rights. Upon his return to India, he organized poor farmers and labourers to protest oppressive taxation and widespread discrimination. Assuming leadership of the Indian National Congress, Gandhi led nationwide campaigns for the alleviation of poverty, for the liberation of women, for brotherhood amongst different religious and ethnic groups, for an end to untouchability and caste discrimination, and for the economic self-sufficiency of India, but above all for Swaraj—the independence of India from foreign domination. Gandhi famously led Indians first in the disobedience of the British-imposed salt tax with the 400 kilometers (249 miles) Dandi Salt March in 1930, and later in an open call for the British to Quit India in 1942. He was imprisoned for many years, on numerous occasions, in both South Africa and India.

Gandhi practiced non-violence and truth in all situations, and advocated that others do the same. He lived simply, organizing an ashram that was self-sufficient in its needs. Making his own clothes—the traditional Indian dhoti and shawl, woven with yarn he hand spun on a charkha—he lived on a simple vegetarian diet; he also undertook long fasts as forms of both self-purification and social protest.

To see how he looked (you have to copy the address):
