Happiness

What is happiness? Is it prospering with gold and power? Is it having the ability to handle whatever life throws at you? Or is it having great jobs and being physically attractive? Happiness can mean different things to different people.

However, this does not mean that if you have a lot of money you won't be happy. Having money is not bad either, but this just means that apart from these factors, there are still some much more important factors in determining happiness.

Happy people have a different attitude - a different way of thinking about things and doing things. These people interpret the world in a different way, and go about their lives in a different way.

In my opinion, i feel that being truly happy is the way we choose to think about ourselves, our place in the world, and the world around us, and how we act in that world, that differentiates the happy people from the less happy people. It is up to us to choose to be happy, sad or angry. For example, if a person irritate you, you can just ignore him and choose not to listen to it. Hence, we will not be angry. Furthermore, we can choose to be optimistic and not brood over past mistakes.

People may define happiness in many ways, but it is definitely our choice to choose to be happy.
