To you, what is happiness?

Question

I've found that there are many different things that make different people happy. Be it wealth or love, or even the thought of being alive. What brings YOU happiness?

Answer 1

TO slag your boss

Answer 2

My mind and soul at peace.  Having my baser desires fullfilled, such as getting married, having children, hanging with my friends (anything that you want to do).  Surrounding myself with tranquility, all of these things is what happiness is to me.

Answer 3

my soul at peace, making a right choice, enough food on the table for my child for this meal and the one to come.

the right thing happening to the right person, be it me or someone I know deserved the good.

hope in the future, hope and pushing myself and feeling good for it.

hard work with good results.

knowing the bills are paid the next month.

not knowing how things will turn out, but knowing I can handle it when it comes.

just a few off the top of my head.

** editted to add since you can't do it anyother way.

happiness is my love on the outside and my sorry ingenious imagination on the end that gives me that "up to something smile" or amuses me when I'm down.

finding something I like about myself when I am down,

and like someone said that coffee in the window when I need peace, or really

having someone say ok babe whatever YOU need, like I have done my whole life.

YOU GET A STAR for this question that makes me happy.

YOU MY FRIEND MAKES ME HAPPY THIS MINUTE.

Answer 4

To me, happiness is knowing that i am accepted into this world. happiness is feeling secure and safe. happiness is looking forward to another day. happiness is dreaming and wishing for the impossible, hoping it will happen. happiness is feeling good about myself even when everyone doesn't think so. happiness to me is about facing reality and accepting who you are in life while trying to be the best you can.

Answer 5

I know what makes me happy, Life. Everything about it is remarkable even with its faults.

Just living each day as I am, whether happy, sad, angry or whatever, that makes me happy.

Simple stuff I guess.

Answer 6

the few moments of peace where it all falls away and i can feel the music of this earth strum through my body. when i find myself in his arms  knowing that i don't have to leave and he isn't gonna let go of me. the days when i find a pretty flower growing on the side of the road and know that nature is going to do what it wants no matter what us humans try to do to control it.  those little moments in life that let us know that we are not alone and that even in the darkest of hours there are things to be glad for.

Answer 7

to me happiness is sitting alone at a small cozy corner in the usual cafe or coffee joint you frequent and sipping a hot cup of coffee.  my point is that happiness is transient.  it comes and goes.  i dont think you can find happiness that never goes away.

Answer 8

To me, happiness is mostly brief- I don't believe I have found proper contentment yet. I find happiness in comfort, love, laughter, company, acceptance, dreams and excitement. Mostly in sunshine, a good book and peace though :)
