The definition of happiness is so broad and varies for each person. Some people regard having a social circle either online or offline or following their hobbies and interests to be sources of pleasure, while others require a decent living environment and great financial circumstances in either legal forms or mode. Some also find their fulfillment, satisfaction, and happiness by their generosity in helping others particularly the poor and needy.
The United Nations has compiled a list of characteristics that influence a person's happiness and are used to assess a country's happiness. GDP per capita, social support, healthy life expectancy, freedom to make life choices, charity, and views of corruption are among the items in this list.
Based on the report of Helliwell et.al (2021), the top five (5) of the 2021 Report of Happiness ranking in order are Finland, Denmark, Switzerland, Iceland, and The Netherlands. On the other hand, ASEAN countries like Singapore at 32nd, Thailand at 54th, the Philippines at 61st, Vietnam at 79th, Malaysia at 81st, Indonesia at 82nd, Cambodia at 114th, Laos at 100th, Myanmar at 126th. Based on this I could say that collectively economic status is contributory to the nation's happiness.
Mehrdadi et.al (2016) mentioned that many psychologists believed that there are at least three fundamental elements of happiness of an individual that includes emotional, social, and cognitive conceptions. The emotional component has resulted in broad and positive social ties with others, while the social component has resulted in widespread and positive social relationships with others. The cognitive component leads to an optimistic interpretation of ordinary experiences. Looking at these factors, I’ll be happy to share my ‘Noise.cash’ experiences. Generally, I am glad to share my posts that contribute to my happiness in using this platform.
