Happiness is the comfort of snuggling in the mother's warm arms ; Happiness is the sweet of resting your head on your lover's broad shoulder; What is happniess ? Happiness is puzzle,there will be one thousand answers,if you let one thousand people answer this question. Someone said that:"The real happiness couldn't be described ,it can only be comprehended, the more comprehension you have,the harder to describe it , because the real happiness is not the fact of assemblage ,it is the state of continuance." Happiness is something that we needn't to show to other persons,it has nothing to do with what other people say,the most important thing is that you live much happiness,in other words,happiness is controled by yourself, not in other people's eyes.Happiness is a kind of feeling,this feeling should be pleasent,it makes you comfortable,happy and sweet.

I don't agree that real happiness cannot be defined because HAPPINESS is a simple word with so much meaning. It is subjective that almost everyone can say something about it. I guess it's more proper to say that happiness has many definitions. For me, happiness is...being with my family, smelling the fresh breath of my baby daughter, a kiss in the cheek and the word I love you Mom from my son, a surprise visit from a friend, a pat in the back from my parents, a dog's tail wagging happily because of my arrival, a quiet time with God, a breakfast with coffee with my husband, watching a good movie in the comfort of my home complete with popcorn and soda on the side with my son and hubby, a commendation from a satisfied client, waking up each morning healthy and alive. I could go on and on of the happiness I have in my heart. I have turned down a very good opportunity just because that would mean I will be separated and be based away from my family, I never regreted it because deep in my heart I am happier where I am now:)

Happiness to me is having my family arond me, they bring me such joy. The little grandchildren with there eyes all shinning and smiling faces. The time spent with my grown children.Happines is wakeing up in the morning and being able to get out of bed and enjoy another day here on earth.
