Wiki says "Happiness is a mental or emotional state of well-being characterized by positive or pleasant emotions ranging from contentment to intense joy" .
I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.-Groucho Marx
My definition: Well happiness is just that thing that makes us say "aaahhh...Thank god" With a smile!It could even be just passing the exam with a grace mark or escaping a detention with just a warning! The feeling that we get after we just escape a punishment or not being caught after we skip a signal is happiness.The secret to be happy is to admire without any ego and jealousy and not to desire. A simple gesture is enough to make others happy.Some of these simple gestures that brings out happiness are:
Happiness is Living life inside out,
Doing things without any doubt
Happiness is Meeting a long lost friend,
discussing about everything from beginning till end,
Happiness is Bringing smile in the faces of those i love,
believing in angels and counting the stars above,
Happiness is Having a fancy new haircut,
office on a weekday when it is shut,
Happiness is striking everything off the bucket-list
without anything being missed.
Happiness is receiving what you ordered online,
and walking in the morning sunshine.
There are so many things to be happy about. When we find that the little petrol in the bike can take us two more kilometer further is happiness,and the pain that we get after a rigorous workout is also a joy. Finding someone from your country in the far unknown land,and having a long drive in the rain is also a delight.
We have the power to extract happiness from everything. Happiness depends on our-self. One small effort taken to be happy will change the whole perspective of how we look at things.It is our attitude that defines happiness and not any external factor. Being content is happy, that does not mean one cannot be ambitious. But wherever we are we just need to be happy and that positivity will act as the ladder to climb up.
The time to be happy is now. The place to be happy is where we are and to grow up the ladder make others happy.
A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit and a violin; what else does a man need to be happy?-Albert Einstein
