I'm happy but I don't know if people who know me really think I am.I'm happy with my life but some think I still have many things to do before I could really say I am. But I'm happy, honestly I am. Why can't people see me the way I'm seeing myself? Is there a kind of measurement people must use to see happiness in one's life?

All people know that adolescence is their personal legend. At this time of life,everything is clear, everything is possible and people are not afraid to dream and wish that they would like to do. However, as time passes, a mysterious force is trying slowly to prove that personal legend is impossible. World soul feeds on human happiness, or unhappiness with envy, with jealousy.Fulfillment of personal legend is one duty of the people.

Don't mind what other people think. As long as you're happy then it's all good. Just stick with that feeling. It's one of the greatest feelings you'll feel while you're alive.

Happiness is totally immeasurable... It's a state of being. Expression may be of help but the sole person who knows how happy he/she is, is you yourself. Happiness may not be all about material things here on earth but its a matter of contentment and serenity within you..

Sometimes I wonder why people concentrate so much on my feelings when in fact they just want to be nosey and poke to find out what is really going on in my life. Although I have had nothing to jump and cheer about all year, I have dug deep inside and find that my life although upside I am the most peace I have been in many years.

Happiness is a choice of ones individual or person. We could not found happiness in a material things. We could find it by ourselves. It is our choice to be happy, just be contented and thankful on what we have and not we don't have. I think, we could not measure happiness as well because we (people) our making our lives to be happy that's why it a choice.

first and foremost, to be happy means to have a peaceful and contented mind. it's not about on how many material things you have or how many people you have laughed with or how many people you have made them happy or how loud is your laughter or how many times you put a smile in your face. it's all about the inner peace within yourself and the satisfaction you feel in your life. sometimes people don't see the way you see yourself because happiness is a choice and expressions don't really matter. happiness begins in the mind.

no one can measure the happiness of someone because someone else does anyone know the contents of heart someone. But in general, happiness will always be implied when you always smile and greet others with warmth

A happy person is someone who is contented with what she or he has. He/She will not covet the riches of others. Instead he/she will work hard if he/she wants to get something. Above all, I think, a happy person is that person who knows that life on Earth is not that important compared to the life he/she will have after his/her life on Earth.
