I think it would be difficult to measure directly. lmilan11 https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2073674958 2022-03-02 14:30:40 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2073674958 There's a cliché that life is about the journey, not the destination. I believe it's the moment to moment experiences we share with colleagues, friends, and loved ones that create joy. lmilan11 https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2073678427 2022-03-02 14:32:06 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2073678427 I think measuring happiness is hard if you are not self reflecting. If you are regularly checking in then you can keep a gauge on yourself. https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2077849717 2022-03-04 12:59:31 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2077849717 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. https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2077850176 2022-03-04 12:59:51 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2077850176 Happiness is very subjecting. How can you measure something based on ones own personal feeling or opinions? https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2077965239 2022-03-04 14:07:19 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2077965239 https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078081413 For me happiness is hard to pin point. It may be one simple thing or it could be a bunch of things. I think you make it what you want it to be. Family, friends and music make me happy. ]]> 2022-03-04 15:06:03 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078081413 People say happiness and I like to make the distinction of saying "satisfaction" instead. To work and strive for something and then achieve it . https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078138955 2022-03-04 15:36:49 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078138955 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! https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078141507 2022-03-04 15:38:11 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078141507 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. https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078186099 2022-03-04 16:02:09 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078186099 Happiness is that feeling of joy that makes you have a smile on your face without even trying. https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078186553 2022-03-04 16:02:25 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078186553 Happiness is very hard to measure because there are no units that you can use to measure it. https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078187067 2022-03-04 16:02:46 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078187067 You can't force happiness, it happens naturally. https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078187651 2022-03-04 16:03:07 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078187651 https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078191583 I think measuring happiness is extremely difficult. There are too many factors at play and there is no scale to personal emotions/feelings. ]]> 2022-03-04 16:05:19 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078191583 Happiness should be a part of life every day. https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078199352 2022-03-04 16:09:38 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078199352 Spending time with loved ones makes me happy. ksuhajda11 https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078203585 2022-03-04 16:12:03 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078203585 https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078204901 Happiness is a feeling of contentment and relaxation.  When I have completed and went beyond the goals I have set out for myself.  
Completing work- whether school or home- makes be feel happy because I can see my results. My children and their accomplishments make me happy.]]> 2022-03-04 16:12:51 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078204901 afinch11 https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078206847 Happiness is peace and fulfillment within myself. Seeing my children and students grow. A long bike ride. ]]> 2022-03-04 16:13:58 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078206847 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. https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078207408 2022-03-04 16:14:18 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078207408 Happiness for me is when I see the people I love succeeding in some way. https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078210991 2022-03-04 16:16:18 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078210991 Happiness https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078224396 For me, happiness is a feeling of joy and relaxation. It is when my kids are experiencing something new, or seeing success, spending time with my family.]]> 2022-03-04 16:23:34 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078224396 https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078229002 Happiness is feeling good about where you are in the moment. Smiling, laughing, peace, carefree. Being outdoors, listening to music, dancing, being with loved ones, observing success for myself or others makes me happy.]]> 2022-03-04 16:26:13 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078229002 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. https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078259176 2022-03-04 16:43:23 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078259176 I think that we achieve less happiness when we make it our end goal because we spend more time stressing about trying to be happy, and less time experiencing it. https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078290777 2022-03-04 17:01:21 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078290777 https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078299975 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. ]]> 2022-03-04 17:06:20 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078299975 Because we are spending so much time looking or trying to figure out what happiness is, instead of just being happy in the present. https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078302977 2022-03-04 17:07:51 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078302977 Happiness is when I am planned ahead, lessons are promoting learning and friends/ family are in good balance. When one of these are thrown off, I struggle. https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078308791 2022-03-04 17:11:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078308791 https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078311865 Happiness comes & goes but when you find whatever you're doing meaningful, there is a sense of contentment & purpose, which is not transitory.]]> 2022-03-04 17:13:15 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078311865 I think happiness is based completely on luck and genetics. Everything comes down to luck and genetics. And when you think about it, even your genetics is luck. mferrante12 https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078315223 2022-03-04 17:14:59 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078315223 Happines is subjective. mferrante12 https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078315850 2022-03-04 17:15:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078315850 https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078315963 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]]> 2022-03-04 17:15:26 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078315963 Ignorance is not bliss. mferrante12 https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078316482 2022-03-04 17:15:44 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078316482 Happiness cannot be forced. you have or you don't. https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078322727 2022-03-04 17:19:23 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078322727 https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078349207 For me, happiness is being free from worry and stress, and enjoying all there is to enjoy in each moment we are blessed with, even the difficult ones. The laughter of my wife and daughters makes me happy.]]> 2022-03-04 17:35:30 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078349207 Happiness means being content with your life. https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078351341 2022-03-04 17:36:53 UTC https://padlet.com/lmilan11/lpyjyb8kenpz5bs7/wish/2078351341 Happiness is everything.
