I am thinking on hapiness and like to know about members feelings on happiness. What is hapiness? Is it only by sacrifying yourself for the company where you are working? [For men]. Is it sacrifice for the family, specially husband and children? [For women Or happiness is just a mental feelings? Please give your opinions.

I don't equate happiness with sacrifice. I think it is a fiction that people who want to exploit other people force on people. Happiness has nothing to do with sacrifice. People who sacrifice are very often miserable and they make others miserable by asking them to sacrifice. Cheers!!

I am not agree with you Sometimes happiness is related with sacrifice. When sacrifice is related to force, exploitation then obviously it is different. Thanks.

happiness is satisfaction in whatever you are doing. if you are not satisfied with what you have then you cannot be happy. as per the discussion, if you are not satisfie with the sacifice that you make at home or office then you are not happy. even if you seem to be happy that would be superficial happiness and it would not last for long. look for inner happiness. something that would last for dys to come.

Happiness means a lot if you think more about it. Happiness means to family, job and life. If your family full of lovely people, such as kids and wife. They should be a very nice and very understanding people. especially kids, when they listen to you and do what you as for then it makes you happy. husband or wife is very important person for you, understand each other, know how to forget and forgive problem around and in the family. -About job. Your job should be very easy on you, you love what you do, and also you make a lot of money that make you feel happy with your life then it calls happiness too. Your life will need these to come along and also it has to add up with yourself as well... once your life style is getting better then you need to treat yourself in a better way not a bad way. Because some people have happiness, money and job but do crazy thing. I hope you get what I mean here. And good luck to you

Yes, I am agee with you. One of my neighbor was poor. Poor means not earned sufficient. After hard work and utilization of scope he is earning a lot and today they have bunglow, car etc. But one day the couple expressed that they are not happy as like before. That time the husband has time for his wife and child, but now he is working dawn to mid of night and he has no time for his family.

Thanks for best respond. right, if you spend too much at work and no time for family then your family will change. However, as a wife, she should understand what is the most value thing. She needs to care and be there for both husband and kids... so then her family will not a part. Good luck to them
