If you could give one tip to someone on how to find happiness what would it be? Would you tell them to find love? A good job? Maybe just to enjoy small things life food and drink. What advice would you give on how to find happiness?

No one can tell anyone how to find happiness..each of us finds happiness differently.

So true Margaret, no one is in charge of our happiness except ourselves.

Take care of yourself first. You don't need another person to make you happy. Focus on happiness and success for yourself first. I'm 53 years old and don't feel that I am happy in my life. If hadn't married the first man that came into my life things would have turned out so different.

I would tell them to stop analysing the past or worrying about things in the future that they can't change and about things that will probably never happen.

I saw a quote attributed to Abraham Lincoln the other day "Most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be" So happiness comes from within and you can choose to be miserable, or make the most of the life you have been given.

With little words of love, little kindness we can light up this world with happiness.

Life is full of ups and downs and in the midst of it one can find so many moments that bring in joy. For me little things bring me happiness. A new flower, a new fruit, someone dropping by for a visit, if I find something that I have lost, if our pet eats her food, shopping - I could go on.

If you want to find happiness, just be yourself and enjoy what you do. Don't try to put a mask in your face and pretend to be someone you're not. Always be positive whatever life may bring. And always Love , love, and love.

I would say God, love, and money. Sounds strange but for some reason at this late hour and with all thats on my mind and to do list, thats what I thought of.

Learn how to forgive yourself and other. It's not worth it to hold onto the pain of the past.

@chance216 For me, I feel happy when I manage to put a smile on someone's face. Someone who may be ill, or sad or anything negative happening in one's life.

I am happy as long as my family is happy...they may be all grown up with families of their own but i am still Mama and will forever be there for them.

I have been happy most of my life. I guess that I´m lucky, but I also think that in part it is an attitude. Look at the bright part of life: it´s always there.

We're all different so it would be difficult to pinpoint exactly what will make someone happy but for me it has to do with being closer to God and Jesus. We simply have to chose to be happy. Limit our time with unhappy people and that will generate some happiness.

Happiness is not something you need to hunt high 'n' low for it. But you gotta give it a chance to "happen" to you.

When you have Jesus in your life, you might have unhappiness sometimes, but you'll always have joy.
