Tradition whispers that in the sky is a bird, blue as the sky itself, which brings to its finder happiness. But everyone cannot see it; for mortal eyes are prone to be blinded by the glitter of wealth, fame and position, and deceived by the mocking will-o'-the-wisp of empty honors. But for the fortunate ones who seek with open eyes and hearts, with the artlessness, simplicity and faith which are richest in childhood, there is an undying promise; and to them the Bluebird lives and carols, a rejoicing symbol of happiness and contentment unto the end.

Through these portals you can see joys and happinesses which are all your own... the happiness of pure air; the joy of loving; the joys of pure thoughts; the happiness of springtime, the joy of forest glade and dell; the happiness of watching the stars rise.
