Being happy is a feeling of fulfillment, when you totally find peace in whatever you're doing, no worries, no fret, totally nothing, just smiling and keeping a happy face with peace of mind. We are humans and happiness means different things to us all. To me personally, happiness means peace of mind!. When there's peace, that's happiness I believe.
Others find happiness in other things, mostly short and temporary things. You made a Multi million dollar deal and you went out to celebrate with friends, that's happiness to some or a state of being happy associated with success. Mind you, this type of happiness is short term and anything can change it within the next second.
Some believe happiness lies in materials, like houses, cars and many other assets, if you have access to fleet and many others are under your single control. Some believe freedom is happiness, the fact that you can do anything you like, when you like and how you like defines a state of being happy to some.
Some however believe the only way humans can be happy is when you're in the presence of God. In his presence only can you find true happiness as the world itself isn't wired to give you everything that'll make you happy without it making you sad in the next few years.
With that being said, WHAT'S YOUR DEFINITION OF HAPPINESS?
We have the same definition of happiness. I actually believe that when your mind is at peace, you are not hating anyone, you don't talk about other people, you do good things to others, then you are happy. Everyone has their own definition of happiness. Some find it on material things or wealth, and that's fine. We should respect that. As long as they don't do anything against you, let them be. :)
