Upon reading “The Happiness of Kati” by Khun Ngampan Vejjajiva in class, the book taught me that happiness is different for everyone and can be found in simple moments around us. Even though the main character, Kati (กะทิ), lost her parents, she was still able to live happily with her grandparents and appreciate the love and warmth around her. This made me realise that happiness does not always come from having everything, but from accepting life and valuing the people who care about us. I also felt inspired when we met the author, who was a guest speaker at school on 14th May 2026. She shared her motivations, ideas and writing process; this encouraged me to be more creative and confident in expressing my own thoughts and stories.
