What does happiness mean to you?
Happiness is a sense of fulfillment that comes from living in the moment and simply focusing on the joy that is present at any given time.
To be loved unconditionally and have full freedom to outside what gives you purpose.
Being in a mental state that is positive and constructive.
The comfortability, confidence, and ability to Joy, and properly embrace it.
I define happiness as finding peace with where you are in life, and creating a life for yourself that is fulfilling.
Happiness is a feeling of being content as you are (either in location or thought processes).
Happiness is when you are content [and] enjoy your life as it is.
It is also feeling you get when doing something that not only makes you feel good but makes you feel whole.
Happiness is an emotion that you get when something really pleases you [or is something] you enjoy. You can’t really explain it.
Happiness is living according to values you have defined for yourself.
I define happiness as feeling the sense of satisfaction by doing what you love, which can include helping other to be happy.
Happiness is feeling content, satisfied and fulfilled with your life. This can stem from your accomplishments, fulfilling and healthy relationships, and from just being at peace with yourself, other and your environment.
Happiness is not the joy and highs of life. It is the understanding of the flexations and lows of joy and sadness, and the ability to be content with the balance that exists. It is the understanding of your future, both immediate and far.
To me happiness means fulfillment and inner peace. To be enriched and do what you love. To be secure with yourself and be able to return to a state of inner peace and joy even when people or the world oppose you.
Happiness is a really elated feeling for me, but can be different for everyone.
I do not know.
Happiness is to be able to live freely and without burden, make choices based on free will. Not controlled.
Happiness is the feeling of tranquility and calm, and a place where one can be still and feel the warmth in yourself, it’s also the sound of rhythm and your soul dances. Happiness is inside yourself and is yourself, being how you truly are and overall, a safe place.
Happiness is a state of general content with one’s circumstances; satisfaction with both the pleasant and unpleasant facets of daily life.
My definition of “happiness” is “being free of stress and filled with joy.”
