How you define happiness in your life, is it with the people around you? your children? your achievements or your feelings? The world is so wonderful for having this kind. Sometimes, we didn't see it that we are so priviledge from others from what we have right now. It gives meaning to our life if we learn to accept things in life. It molds us to dream and be courageous that leads us to a successful and happy life. Everything in this world can make us happy because its a gift from God that we need to give importance and significance in our life :)

Well happiness depends on how you want it to rule your life. It depends on how you take circumstances of life. As humans it would be quite possible to stay happy all the time because there are problems and situations that would make us cry, fret or worry. But, that does not mean we could not not have a happy heart. We can always have it but it all depends on us. Abraham Lincoln said, "Most people are about as happy as they make up their minds to be." This is very true. Some people are just too hard to please, some people are just too easy to be depressed, some people are just too easy to give up. But there are those who are positive about life and of naturally happy disposition. Life is easy for them and could rise above any situation no matter how sad it may be. Not every happening could bring happiness but we can always choose to get so depressed and discouraged by them. Let us choose to be happy and live healthy for as the Bible said in Prov.17:22 "A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones." LET US ALL SMILE EACH DAY AND BRING THE SUNSHINE IN!

for me, the definition of happiness is a state where I can provide all the necessities of life, my wife and kids. No need excessive, but clearly above the existing living standards

Happiness for me is balance. Balance in work, balance in family, love, leisure.. Once the balance is lost... I become disenchanted. For a Libran like me, balance is equivalent to happiness. Because if balance is present then it means that everything is in it's proper order. I cannot say I am happy to be getting a promotion or a raise if I'm failing on the family side.. I might be making millions, but still I have no time for relaxation. That's my opinion.
