  • What is Happiness?

    A friend of mine just recently started dating after a long hiatus. Despite the lovers high she's feeling, she doesn't think this new relationship makes her entirely happy.

    This lead her to ponder, if she was indeed happy. She asked me, what is happiness. My first response was: "Being Happy, is standing in front of your fridge, and everything looks good. Being unhappy is standing in front of your fridge, and its full, but nothing looks good".

    Another thing I said was "Happiness is when you're at a coffee shop, and refills are free".


    I like my descriptions. They lack substance, but they are things which make me feel happy. But what is Happiness to you?

    happiness? To me it's about knowing the things you want to learn the next day. There's always something to look forward to, and it's exciting.

    It's just having 0 thoughts, 0 pressure. Completely relax up in the head. Being happy today the future looks bright, being the opposite tomorrow and the same thing just looks boring.

        Happiness is making sure all of your shortcuts point to files that still exist in the same place.

            Happiness is to crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.

                Happiness starts with a lack of problems.

                  You don't need enemies to be short of happiness.

                      Happiness is a constant flow of endorphines in your body.

                          I wish there was a way to prevent the reuptake of seratonin.

                            Every morning that I wake up, I'm pretty happy. Just like I was happy I was able to lay down and go to sleep.
                            Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.
