Happiness for me is in the unexpected moments that bring an instant feeling of joy. A feeling so powerful it drenches you in a warm glow. It's these moments imbedded in my soul that are true happiness.

People say happiness and I like to make the distinction of saying "satisfaction" instead. To work and strive for something and then achieve it .

Happiness to me is what you make of it. If I have a positive attitude and positive people around me, there is nothing you feel like you can't accomplish. My friends, family, and especially my PETS make me happy!

I went to therapy for a few years to figure out what this means.  I got a strong work ethic from my dad, but it wasn't balanced.  Life is much more enjoyable when you take the time to figure out what really makes you happy.

Happiness to me is feeling the weight of my burdens being lifted off my shoulders. Even if just for a short period of time, the feeling of being able to breathe...not experiencing the internal/external effects of stress...that is happiness. Happiness is me being at peace.

I think it's hard to measure happiness. Our level of happiness changes as we do different things in life. We can also confuse happiness with other things, like habit or familiarity. We also may not recognize our own happiness when we're focused on things that might suppress our happiness.

I'm not sure I believe true happiness can be achieved. I think happiness is a feeling but not something that can be measured because it comes and goes like laughter. To me it's more possible to be content. Just being and living is a state that can be measured in my eyes. Happiness is nice and it's important but it's truly hard to measure.

I think that happiness is to be free of pressure and putting pressure to achieve happiness is itself a force preventing you from reaching it. It would be better to make efforts to avoid things that cause distress than to attempt to artificially produce enjoyment

Happiness is a gift that we can receive only when we have our hand open to it. If he have hands clenched in anger, or hold on to pain, or cling tightly to an ideal that is not here now, then we are unable to accept the happiness that is right here right now
