"Life lives,Life dies,Life laughs,Life cries.Life gives up and life tries.But life looks different from everyone's eyes."This is said by a famous writer named Kahlil Gibran I think happiness is also different from everybody's eyes.As for me,I think happiness is quite simple.When you come back home,you find your light is on and there is someone waitting for you on the door instead of opening the door by yourself.Happiness is when you wake up,there is someone sleeping beside you and wait to give you a morning kiss.Happiness is just around our daily life.Share your defination of happiness with us,come on everyone. Happy mylotting!

My happiness should include family,career,friends and health.I hope my parents ,my husband,my baby and me can understand each other and live happily.And I could have a dreaming job and make more and more good friends.Then all people I know could be healthy.This is my opinion.Good luck and happy mylotting.

Well, my understaning of happiness is very simple. If I don't feel extreme anxious, I will be happy. Everybody in this world gives happiness a different meaning since we are going through a different life. According to Wikipedia, happiness is a state of mind or feeling such as contentment, satisfaction, pleasure, or joy. A variety of philosophical, religious, psychological and biological approaches have been taken to defining happiness and identifying its sources. Philosophers and religious thinkers have often defined happiness in terms of living a good life, or flourishing, rather than simply as an emotin. Happiness in this older sense was used to translate the Greek Eudaimonia, and is still used in virtue ethics. In everyday speech today, however, terms such as well-being or quality of life are usually used to signify the classical meaning, and happiness is reserved for the felt experience or experiences that philosophers historically called pleasure.
