𓄫𓏏𓄣 – β€œBe Happy, β€œHappiness,” β€œJoy,” – or in Middle Egyptian, β€œWide Heart.”

𓄫𓏏𓄣 – β€œBe Happy, β€œHappiness,” β€œJoy,” – or in Middle Egyptian, β€œWide Heart.” I LOVE how the actual Middle Egyptian version of the word is β€œWide Heart 𓄫𓏏𓄣” – I think it carries so much meaning in such a little phrase. β€œAncient Egypt makes my heart wide” sounds cooler than β€œAncient Egypt brings me joy/happiness” – in my opinion at least! I always love seeing Happiness/Joy 𓄫𓏏𓄣 written on objects because that is exactly how I felt when I was in a museum and looking at Egyptian artifacts with my Nonno. The only emotion I could feel at the time was joy 𓄫𓏏𓄣 and I was so lucky. I would do anything to go to a museum with my Nonno and experience those emotions again. While I do feel immense joy 𓄫𓏏𓄣 in museums now, there’s always a sadness to it as well because I truly miss my Nonno more than anything. Let’s read some hieroglyphs π“ŠΉπ“Œƒπ“ͺ! Here are some common variants for β€œHappiness,” and β€œJoy”: π“„«π“„£ 𓄫𓄣𓏏 𓄫𓏏𓄣𓏺 𓄫𓄣𓏺 This is my video and original text.
