what is your description of happiness ?

happiness is long journey itself, not a final destination

What is true happiness? nobody but themselves can answer that question, happiness comes and goes in any given life more times than you could immagine.

Different things make different people happy.

My obvious one is Love. The feeling of loving someone or something so much that you would give your life in place of theirs would be one of the most powerful feelings someone can experience.

My passion is music, i love playing and preforming it, whether im playing drums or guitar doesnt matter. One day i would love to do it professionally and entertain people for a living. When i am working with a new band which has potential or people tell me how my dream could come true, it makes me feel hopeful and excited, when i perform i am at my peak of joy and feel so content with life. When i don'y have a band, or project and cannot move towards my dream, i am much less happy. So i believe that dreams or ambitions so long as there is a possibility that they COULD one day come true and as long as you hold on to them ambitions these drive your life and could be a part of true happiness.

Memory - probably the most important factor in being happy. For me anyway. It makes the good experiences in your life - good. Without the memmories of the good and bad times, you don't know what makes you happy. bad times are what make the good times so good. If you only have good times, how do you know if you are happy?

Experiences which make you happy, as in my case - good times with friends, being in love, fighting towards my ambition. These only make me happy because i can look back to the times when i have been experiencing each of them. Even though i feel sad at the moment because i am not in love (or atleast not in a relationship), not moving towards my ambition and i am away from my best and most true friends and family, my memmories of the good times can cheer me up and make me look forward to the adventures and good times ahead.

true happiness to me lies in knowing that you have enhanced someone else's life to the point where it made a difference. this though is the reason why happiness is an idea rather than a feeling. happiness to me can be achieved in many ways, but it is up to you to find out how to achieve it :)

I've read somewhere that you find happiness when tou don't need anything. I think that's a good definition but almost impossible,we all need something or someone. But it seems to me that whenever you fulfill your goals,you're happy. But being happy forever would be kind of boring,so you have to keep on setting new goals for yourself.

Happiness can be stated when you yourself can accept everything that is going on in your life.

For me it is to feel peace. To be at a place in life were I know that nothing is perfect but that everything will be okay.

knowing that im going to heaven, and enjoying the present moment.
