Happiness
Happiness is an emotion. Its a sense of joy or contentment. People derive happiness in many things, to some few, whether good or bad depending on what life brings to the table or how you live your life. What brings happiness in life? is it wealth or love? There are more than these two mentioned that bring happiness but I will be emphasizing these two. Does wealth bring happiness? Wealth/money is said to solve many things in life but does it bring happiness? The more wealth an individual earn the more happiness he gets. There are people that achieve perfect happiness with the amount of wealth they already have. I believe wealth earned rightly with hard work also contributes to the overall happiness of an individual. Research has it that, millionaires who made their wealth on their own were indeed happier than those who hadn’t. Does love bring happiness? Love, though, is an element that you can always count on to bring lasting happiness. Love always wins, no matter where you are and what you have. Self-love is important, you need to love yourself first before you give or receive love from others. Human relationships are able to keep you healthier and happier- Robert J. Waldinger, a psychiatrist, and professor at Harvard Medical School. People find happiness when they are with those they love, their family, friends, and partners. Life itself has thrown many good and bad things at us to make us feel happy and sad. A time like this during a pandemic, we are faced with a lot of challenges as a person, and a nation, with the number of deaths, economic crises, racism, rape do people still find happiness? By God's grace, we are not consumed. Most of us still have our lives, families, friends, wealth, business. All these things make us happy during a pandemic. But what about those that don't still have these things, how can they find happiness? There are people who derive sadistic enjoyment in hurting others, making people suffer, and doing badly. They show no remorse towards others, no conscience. Life runs on the principle of pleasure and pain. All living beings avoid doing things that are painful and do things that bring pleasure.

Happiness is a choice. A person even without money can be happy if he chose to be happy.
Happiness is a felling which releted to our heart. Also happiness is an emotions.. Money cannot buy happiness. Becouse it’s not a goods. Happiness have many times. Which we get from many sector of our life.
yes money can't buy happiness but when people make money they feel happy, don't they?
Yes you are right somewhat but i think It's not permanent.
Yeah that's why i wrote on the article "The more wealth an individual earn the more happiness he gets".
Happiness is a heart felt emotion experience by someone who has joy. Money can buy happiness but it doesn't stay long. Happiness bought wit money is a consumable feeling which means that it won't last for long. But happiness that is not bought stays for ever even when we feel sad once we look back to happy days we smile because the feeling is still in the heart but sometimes it's OK to be sad because if we are never sad we won't know the value of being happy
Thanks for the contribution
No problem
Yes happinesses is really essential ..I went through your article nice work but its actually not everyone that is wealthy that is happy.they juy act like they are but deep down they are not.most cases those people who don't have much are happier than they are.i don't speak just because I want to but I actually speak out of experience and instances.peace of mind contributes greatly to happiness as well as Good too..
Thanks for the contribution
I love it how you emphasize the principle of life that lies between pleasure and pain, happiness and sadness, and all other things that makes us alive and for some reason these things makes humanity to dream more, to strive for more and the hunger of all desires in the world however if we find happiness in satisfaction, everything will be in place, and that's in Gods plans for us.
Yeah you are right, but finding happiness in satisfaction isn't simple.
I agree. Its easier to tell than done. I just hope that everyone will find the path to attain happiness.
