I am happy just to have an opportunity to live in this wonderful world. I enjoy my life, although it shows me sometimes that it isnt always as I want it to be. I am happy because i'm still with my family, because these are maybe the last years when I ?? with them on the holidays. Don't be sad! Treassure the moments you have now and be happy! :) Don't think so negatively in your life, there are somethings to smile about :)

Well said, my friend! Always looking at what's right in your life and ignoring the negative parts is a good way to make yourself happier. One good step is to have the attitude of gratitude...find all the things in your life that makes you feel grateful. The moment you wake up, start thanking God for giving you another day when others didn't have that same opportunity, then continue thanking God for all the other things you can think of. It could be your new car or new clothes that you liked, or it could be a good relationship, or simply the fact that your health is okay. If you seek things to be grateful for, you will find them :)

I loved your take on happiness, actually that is the spirit. One should remain happy in every case and should thank his stars that he is still here to enjoy the life with his loved ones.

No. Happiness is the circumstance of successful conditions (or the condition of successful circumstances whatever). In life's roulette-wheel, when the ball lands where you want it to, that's happiness. (The word is rooted in "hap," whose 'true sense' is "success.") I think the word you're looking for (that quality which marks a person as 'happy') is "joy." "Joy" is 'the hope for happiness.' If one is 'joyful,' one's mind is pointed toward happiness like a magnetic compass is pointed toward the Earth's pole.

When i am doing all the works with my own hands, i feel so elated and happy. Then the moment of happiness is immense when our family is together as usual in the evening, we do have some chat and outing or visiting market. Happiness is also sharing things with others.

Hm first there is not such think as 100% of happines.I can say that at least i am not unhappy :) {said that cause i am not so much satisfied with my position inlife right now ).Like everything else happines its not same adjective for everyone (one thing makes you happy another thing makes me happy),so this is a very subjective question who can say what happines is,but yeah some people really look happy this is in their blood to smile everytime to be the heart of the company.I use to work like waiter and bartender and there you must look happy all the time no matter how did you feel inside so i can also say that is the matter of how strong your personality is.

yes, I'm pretty happy. And yes, requires an effort to achieve happiness, and to obtain happiness, sometimes I tend to hang out with people who are happy in my neighborhood, because it will increase my tendency to be happy...

Happiness is state of mind where satisfaction rules and nothing else. I would never feel unhappy over the things beyond my control. In fact I love to remain in this state of happiness come what may,that is the secret om energy. I love it this way, happy always.
