For me, my vision of true happiness is a person is not only their contentment with their life and their ability to be thankful - although those are two very big things - but also whether or not they feel their life serves a purpose. They are confident, they know what they want, they work towards having it, and find joy in doing so. They measure accomplishment by personal satisfaction rather than what other people think... they don't feel inferior to others, nor superior. They are well-balanced people with affectionate personalities whose lives are well thought out and therefore have a purpose. I think when you feel as though you've lost that sense of purpose is when you don't feel like you're anyone important anymore and consequently lose a lot of your happiness. I also think it also helps to be able to have access to a lot of friends and family to share it all with... people who find pleasure in giving pleasure.

What kind of people are happier? Well, happiness can be found in any aspect. You could be happy when you have finished a mission. You could be happy when you have nothing to worry about. You could be happy when you are back home safe. You could be happy when you get married on your wedding day. You could be happy when your child comes to this world to start his travel in the world. Ok, we cannot simply say who is happier and who is the happiest. It all depends on how you think about happiness.

Hello there. I think the happiest people in the world are those who count their blessings and who are thankful.
Happiness is a state of mind. There are people with lots of money but not happy. There are people with very little money but very happy. Happiness is a choice. May we all choose to be happy and learn to count our blessings and be thankful. I am still learning. =D

Hey, being happy or not all depends on ourselves. Choose to be hapy, then we are happy. I agree that happines is a state of mind. One needs to be contented with everything we already have .
