The older I become the more I think about what real happiness is! I have a few points that I think make life a little happier. The following points do not apply to everyone: 1. It seems to me the more people believe in a higher power the happier they are. 2. Altough people say money can't make you happy,I say they are wrong. Money solves alot of stress problems; financial freedom is what people work for their whole lives. 3.Love is a tricky game; some find it and are truly happy, but most settle for what they can get and are not truly in love and therefore unhappy. 4. Finding a caree you love; doing work you love is not work. The truth is only a few are lucky enough to be working at a caree they love. 5 Keep your mind sharp; a healthy mind make life a little easier. 6 Stay fit; keep your body in good shape by exercises and eating healthy foods. The healthier you are the happier you are, usually. Just some though on a happier life, what is your take?

You have lots of good suggestions but isn't happiness no more than a choice we make??? Think about it. I could be a homeless, broke bum riding on a freight train and could be the happiest man alive. Ah yes, WHAT A VIEW!!!!

happiness for me is: 1. you don't have a single penny in your hand and yet your family is there with you. 2. being healthy 3. hanging out with my friends. 4. health of my family 5. reconciliation with my best friend these are the things that could make me happy

Love. It's that simple! Love yourself. Love your planet. Love your fellow humans. Love your loved ones!

This is a good discussion and I am sure that different people have different opinions when it comes to happiness,and what it takes to be happy,since some things make some people happy,while other things make other people happy,and no two people are usually happy about the same things,and I personally think the key to happiness is having the one you love with you to do things with and enjoy their company,and also having children to raise and teach and take care of,and just living your life the best way you can without worrying or wondering what might happen,and I always try to live every day the best I can with my wife by my side,and I love her and could not imagine my life without her,have a great day,good luck with your life,and all of your mylotting goals,and Happy Posting.
