The little rabbit wanted to know how to get happiness.

He went to ask his mother, and she told him that being able to prepare a good dinner for his family every day was happiness. So, the rabbit decided to prepare dinner with his mother and experience the feeling of happiness.

However, cooking is not as easy as the rabbit imagined. When washing vegetables, hands soaked in the cold water, almost lost consciousness; chopping vegetables, to avoid cutting hands, had to crumble the spirit of tight; frying vegetables, hot oil splashed on the body, can hurt!

It was hard to finish the dinner, but the rabbit felt only tired and hard work, no happiness at all. He thought that happiness must be somewhere else.

The next day, the hare found the monkey and asked him how to get happiness.

Monkey thought about it and said, "As long as you can pick the big and sweet fruit on the tree, you are happy."

So the rabbit and the monkey looked for a fruit tree full of fruit. The monkey climbed the tree skillfully, while the rabbit could only climb up slowly. His claws were not sharp enough to hold the tree firmly; his paws were not big enough to provide a support point for the force.

It was hard to climb to the first branch, and the hare was exhausted and panting, but the sweet fruits were higher up, so he had to grit his teeth and keep climbing. However, climbing the tree was a difficult task for the hare. The pain all over his body made him unable to exert himself, and he fell from the tree with carelessness.

"Oh, watch out!"

Fortunately, the monkey was quick and pulled the rabbit, otherwise, he would have fallen to the ground.

The little rabbit sat under the tree and ate the fruit given to him by the little monkey.

The monkey smiled and asked, "How is it? The fruit is very sweet, isn't it?"

The fruit was indeed very delicious, but the little rabbit did not feel happy. If you want to eat the fruit, go to the market to buy it, why risk is your life suffering?

After that, the rabbit found the kitten and asked him how to get happiness.

The cat said, "I'm going fishing, so let's go together. Fishing is a very happy thing, especially when the fish are on the hook."

The rabbit and the kitten went to the river, and the kitten excitedly got the fishing gear ready, and they waited in silence for happiness to come. The sun was drying out their throats and they thought hours had passed, but in reality, it was only a few minutes, and the rabbit thought to himself: what kind of happiness is this?

The kitten caught several fish one after another and was happy. The rabbit was staring at his float in boredom, and just when he was about to give up, the fish was hooked! The rabbit excitedly tried to pull the fish up, but with a slip of the foot, a poof fell into the water, fortunately, the water is not deep, just wet clothes, but the fish has long escaped the shadow.

Before saying goodbye, the cat gave the rabbit a fish and agreed to fish together again next time. Looking at the cat's happy back, the rabbit does not understand, fishing in the end where the happiness.

The rabbit felt that today he was too unlucky, and I am afraid that happiness is getting farther and farther away from him. When I got home, I took a hot bath and my mother had already prepared dinner. Eating a delicious meal, the rabbit's heart couldn't help but think: what happiness.

"Seeing you eat with such a great taste makes people feel happy." Mom said so.

At that moment, the little rabbit noticed that the smile on the mother's face was the same as when the little monkey picked the fruit and when the little cat caught the fish, both of which had gained happiness. The little rabbit then understood that everyone's happiness is different and that one must find it for oneself to obtain one's happiness.
