What's happiness for you?
I'm a mistake - legalize abortion!:
Let's see each other's perspective. And argue. ;D
Monica:
Happiness is not having what you want, happiness is wanting what you have.
Happiness is being grateful for everything you got. Happiness is looking at the people below you who have no home, food, are in war or are sick then realizing how much in a better life you are. =]
This is weird, I was just talking about happiness to my friend few mins ago.
Monica:
Let us say we are having a glass of milk. Half is full and half is empty.
There are two types of people :
One who will look directly at the empty half and one whose eyes will be happy with the full half.
You sure know which one you are from those people.

So those who have nothing can't be happy?

So then why is there the pursuit of happiness?

Synchronicity. :D
Monica:
No one have nothing.
A poor person might be having good health while the rich one is sick. Health itself is the reason why a person should be happy.
God doesn't give a person everything. You might be smart and talented but you might not be good looking.
That is why, happiness is satisfaction. Being satisfied with whatever you have. Like that glass of milk example, it means looking at what you have not what you don't and being satisfied with it.
Everyone is responsible for their OWN happiness. It is you who can make yourself happy.
