blissfully

In pure joy

Blissfully is an adverb describing actions done in a state of complete happiness or serene contentment.

Someone who is blissfully unaware or blissfully ignorant doesn't know about something unpleasant—and their ignorance keeps them happy.

A couple might be blissfully happy or blissfully in love, suggesting an almost dreamlike contentment.

The word often carries a hint of naivety, implying the happiness comes partly from not knowing what troubles lie ahead.
