WHAT IS YOUR HAPPINESS IN LIFE? WHY?

    My happiness in life, as "baduy" or "jologs" as it may sound or rather religiously offensive to some, is my personal relationship with Jesus Christ--having Him as my personal Lord and Savior. This is so because whatever trial, challenges, or problems that come to my life, whether it be financial, emotional, or family problems, there is, an indescribable yet overwhelming joy that God puts in my heart as if He whispers in my ears "I will never leave you nor forsake you. Don't worry."

    My happiness in life, is when i'm with my family
    specially when we go to church to attend mass. and even there's so many problems, small or big as long as we are together i can say that i'm happy. it really makes me happy when i feel the love and care in our family.

  3. Over the course of my life, I have experienced many days of happiness; they all had a unique ingredient that separated them from each other as a distinct experience. There is; however, a day that I remember with extra fondness, a day that occupies a bigger space in my heart, the day that my teeth was replaced. I suppose I could say this is possibly the happiest day in my life so far.

    I can mostly define happiness when i am still in secondary level, because in this stage of my life i knew more about my self. My capabilities, my strength and most specially my skills that never been discovered before. And also, in this part of my life i learned to stand alone just by myself, i learned to conquer fears and try to resolve my very own struggles.

    My Happiness? There are many things that could make me happy because I'm that easy go lucky guy. But what gives me happiness the most is when I'm with my Mom, because my Mom already have another family and they live in Hong-Kong, so I can just be with her occasionaly. She's the reason why I still got to study, even though this must be my last year in college. She's the best Mom. I love her and I will do anything for her.

    There are a lot of things that can make a person happy. Physical objects such as gadgets and the like are good examples of these. But all of these things can be achieved easily and can only last for a short amount of time until that object loses its value or purpose. So for me, what I value most is true happiness. True happiness for me is something that I can obtain by means of achieving something like goals or dreams. This kind of happiness lasts for longer amounts of time since its something that I worked hard for in order to attain it. But ultimately, I find my true happiness in my family and in God. To me, they are the most precious and most priceless of all things and I'm lucky to have them in my life.

    I think that being happy is synonymous to being contented. That's why my happiness is when I feel contented like I ate my favorite food, I met a new friend, found a thousand peso bill without an owner, or simply seeing someone very special to me. I also think that happiness can be achieved through giving/sharing love with someone. One example is helping an elderly cross the highway. You will feel happy when he/she would thank you for your kindness.

    "Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections."

    I was born in an incomplete family but it doesn't affect of who I am today and what is my perception in life.Behind those mistakes I've done and secrets that sometimes I hide, they accept for who I am. For that I'm very thankful that they are my family and that is one of the reason of my happiness in life. Aside from that, it could be my happiness to served my mother, give her a good life, and make her proud of me by being graduated in my chosen career and become a successful engineer. Also, I promise that I will design a house for her, make it real so that we could be living in the same house as I settle down together with my own family in the future.
    Many special occasions had past, Christmas, new year, even my birthday. I often celebrate it without my mother. But what makes me happy is that the memories I treasured the most,those time that my mother was present on those occasions. Even those simple days that we shared together, it makes me happy. :))

    My happiness in life is my family. Since I was a child, my family always have bonding every time my father comes home from work. I am the clown of the family, every time I go home, we always laugh to death. :)) Also, when I introduced my girlfriend to them, she and my sisters were also like sisters.

  12. My life is full of happiness not because i always have the moment of laughter and suffice everything i want but its because i believe God has a plan and there He cares for me. I am happy knowing that whenever I met other people mostly in school it opens up my mind and my way to life relate to their characters. I've been the same what others doing and having before a lot of friends and pleasure activities. You can have all that but its all fools to me now and its all temporary. All I pray for this time is for me to do things which has an eternal value and just perfectly honoring to Christ. There is nothing in this world can make me feel happy but to walk with truth(His Words and live my life with Him.

    There are a lot of things that makes a person happy, like power, new clothes, gadgets, and other material wealth. But for me, what makes me really happy is when we have our family reunion or friends reunion because that’s the time when we spend time with each other, we show our gratitude to one another for being part of our lives. It is just nice to bring back the old memories of the past, the days when we first met our friends; the days when we ask their names; the days when we first play together in the street; the days when we bound together. Those days will always remain on our hearts and minds that will surely make us laugh until the day when we become old, these things will always remind us how beautiful the life is here on earth. It is just nice to imagine how great is God for putting us on the same road, so we will not take our journey alone. These are the chapters of my life, which makes me really happy. THANKS GOD!!!
    I salute GOD =]

    For me I see happiness in two different categories.
    First the short term happiness. My short terms of happiness were giving some alms to a beggar, seeing them their smile and would say "thank you for your kindness" was like a 5 hours of happiness. Riding a roller coaster was like 10 minutes of happiness. Eating one of my favorite foods was like 5 minutes of happiness, etc.

    And the long term happiness. My long term happiness was the love from my family, relatives and friends, and for the education and the trust that was given to me. I can say that I'm lucky to have a family like this and I'm very thankful to God for generously giving me this life full of happiness.

    Happiness is something everyone wants to achieve. While others mat seem to be looking for money, power or other things what they actually seek in happiness. But for me, my happiness in life is simply my family because they are my everything, my supporters and they are the one who accept and love me for who i am. They taught me the difference between right and wrong, though i know i don't always make the right choices because i'm not perfect but i learned from every mistakes i made. I value them most because they value me the same and i'm lucky enough to have them that supports me in everything i do, like my career i choose, decisions i made and they guide me as well.

    There are many things that makes me happy. First is my family. We always spend our extra time bonding with each other by attending mass, go shopping, dinner at any fast food or restaurant, out-of-town with other relatives, etc. It also makes me feel happy when im with my college friends playing dota and counterstrike. I enjoyed laughing, shouting and trash talking with them and it completes my day.

    My happiness in life is to hang out with my friends. Playing computer games with them, exchanging jokes with them. And sometimes I feel that I can't live without them because I don't have any friends like them. Maybe many of them are the same like my friends, but it's difficult to cooperate with other people without knowing each other.

    Happiness is a thing that always wants by every people to catch up on. Sometimes searching for happiness leads to selfishness.
    There are many things that makes me happy but the most reason of my happiness in life is simply when i see the people I love that they are happy, my family and my friends, because they make me happy, the reasons why I smile and laugh. My life is not only about for myself but also for others, that's why I also feel happy when i make someone happy, because sometimes the best thing I can do for someone is to just exist, to be there when they suddenly realize that they need me right then.

    Happiness, for me happiness is really define when you have something and you shared it. That something may represent a thing or a feeling that no one can get it from you.

    In this wonderful world there's a lot of things that can make a person happy. But for me there's one thing, and that is when I'm beside of my love ones. One of my experienced,when we celebrated our 1st anniversary, 1 month before our special day I made a plan because any girl wants a romantic night for that event. Actually it's hard to plan for that special day, I made a movie, I checked our schedules just to be sure it will be a perfect night and etc. But eventually that night was so perfect for us, my plans went well and we cherish that moment. And until now I still feel that awesome feeling, you know the feeling that you shared one of the best night of your life with the person you love the most. Sometimes it's not all about you to be happy just to say you're happy but it's sharing what you feel to other person . And that is one of my happiness in life.

    You cannot always have happiness, but you can always give happiness.  ~Author Unknown

    My happiness in my life is being with the people close to me. I'm tired of listening to music alone, tired of looking at the skies alone, tired of eating meals alone, tired of going home alone, I'm tired being all alone.

    Every time I meet new friends in our class, since I'm a free-section student, I'm already happy, of course, not to the extent that I'm very happy, but that simple thing is already my happiness in life.

    Every time my friends or persons close to me, cousins, etc, and I were on the same bus or jeepney, I'm already happy. That simple thing, again, is already my happiness in life.

    Friends and persons close to me, being with them, is already a happiness and brings it to my life.

    Many people keep on asking why I am happy. Like them, I’ve searched a lot of things too. Like them, I have been into troubles on how I am going to achieve happiness. Definitely, the search is not successful for the search to happiness is not easy.
    You have to know what are your priorities in life and how will you deal with them.
    Like any other person, searching happiness is always in my list.

    I have gone to different places meeting different people
    Well for me, the search to happiness must come deep within our hearts. We must enjoy what we are doing and always pay back what we’ve got.

    The greatest source of my happiness is my family and God. I am happy that my family share the same faith, my father had a rough time when he was a kid sometimes my grandfather will seriously beat him if he makes small mistakes, now my father don't beat me up like what my grandfather did to him. I know what prevents him from beating me is because he wants to follow the kind of father God is. Also, most of the people i consider true friends are in church.

    Happiness is a mental state of well-being characterized by positive emotions ranging from contentment to intense joy. There are many things that makes me happy. First is my Family we have a time bonding to each other. They taught me what is right and what is wrong. Second is my friends when we hang out and playing computer games.

    Happiness comes in our life with different ways whether we get it from a material thing or any event like a birthday party it is an emotion that we cannot deny from others. We cannot attain easily happiness from doing something we must love what we are doing or to an object. And for me my happiness comes from my loved ones, most of all my family where I can keep all the memories that shows happiness within me. Even if you had a problem in your life, your family is always there for you and always can give you what happiness is.

    There's no like other happiness in life for me, it only depends on us or who you are, on how do you spent a lot of your time engaging your satisfaction. But into other people thinks to the word of happiness was to loved and to be loved. I would like my experience focus however more on strides for me to manifest my happiness, and these are achieving happiness, maintaining happiness, and helping others to be happy through our True Happiness .

  26. What is happiness for me? If happiness is the relationship of our family,i'm superbly happy. If its the friends i have,im too happy. If happiness is the money i got,well im quite happy too. There are different factors on what makes people happy. I'm happy because I feel contented with my life. I have a strong bond with my family,a girlfriend who really loves me,friends that are great,and a little bit of material things. And I give due credit to those who made me feel this way.

    If you want to be happy and I’m sure everyone does, it’s essential to make sure that you don’t fall into pitfalls on the way to happiness. Falling into the pitfalls will make it difficult for you to be and stay happy in life.
    That’s why I believe that one of the best ways to find happiness is to learn about the pitfalls. The more you know about the wrong things to do, the better equipped you will be to do the right things.

    I support the idea that the wicked are not happy. I realize that there is no proof of this. The new ‘happiness’ studies start from what people say makes them happy, and has them grade their happiness on a scale of 1-10. This ‘bottom up’ approach has the virtue of valuing what people actually say. However, though a wicked person may be elated at the murder of an enemy, can such a person really be happy? I would say that, from my philosophical point of view, peace of mind a large component of happiness. How cam someone with enemies and vicious competitors be happy?

    My happiness in life hasn't come yet. It's not that I've never experienced being happy, well I'm happy when I'm with my family and friends, but I'm not at the peek of my happiness. It's because for me, happiness comes with contentment and stability. As long as your hungry for something or your trying to do something that would give you better of what you have now, you would never have the true and full happiness.

    My happiness in life is when I actually do something that I thought that I am not able to do. One good example, was that I believed all through out my life that I can't draw shit. That's why I always hated subjects that required drawing skills because as I thought in the past, that I cannot...ABSOLUTELY CANNOT...do it. But then, when I transferred into FEU-EAC last January, I had to endure my Basic Drawing subject because I really didn't want to fail any subjects last term and I saw it as a challenge that I need to overcome. After a few months of agonizing terrible skillfulness at drawing, I was able to pass my Drawing subject with actually a good grade and moreover, I really now know how to draw, which really gave me a great satisfying feeling in my heart.

    I really don't get that same happiness when I receive good material things like new cell phone and shit like that but then I would also admit, that I get a little happiness out of it since receiving gifts is always good.
