Happiness to me isn’t a feeling… its knowing that nothing else could possibly go wrong, so you smile because it’s just so dang funny how screwed up life is… it’s knowing that you have somone, ANYONE, that loves you, and knowing God is watching out for you..

*deep breath*

The question you are asking is like asking to describe white to a blind man. How can you do it? The only way I can think of doing what you request without becoming all poetic and sappy is that often we describe things by their opposites. So happy would be the opposite of sad, yes? So maybe the reason that you’re feeling down now is so that later you can look around you and think “I am happy.” I mean, won’t even the angels need to feel pain so they can feel empathy? We all have our down days, but those just make the good days seem so much brighter.

But to me, I have moments where I feel the world as a cleaner, brighter version of itself. Things that are detached from whatever I’m feeling at the moment. Like a sudden rainstorm, a rainbow, a burst of music, the way people react to each other, a moment of kindness. I love watching the world because even though I might be feeling down, the world out there is just so beautiful. I think that’s what my happiness stems from: I’m just so content in this world, despite everything that has happened and will happen to me. I don’t let anything get to me. And if that’s just being calm or crazy it makes me happy.

Happiness to me is being able to smile when everything is going wrong. knowing that no matter what happens, I can still smile at the end of the day.

happiness is that feeling you get when you know that you are truly alive, with happiness comes memories, and memories never die.

Happiness to me is when I reach my goals - When I can feel proud of myself and knowing that all the work wasnt a waste.

happiness is the ultimate goal of all human life.
We mistake having things as being happy.
So we constantly search for new things to make us happy.
It is a temporary happiness.
True happiness comes only by knowing one’s own soul.
All the spiritual masters have reached this point.
It is our goal in life to become a spiritual master such as Jesus, Mohammed, Krishna
Buddha, mother Mary, Leonardo Da Vincy and many others.
These individuals experience complete and utter bliss 24 hours a day.
For ever. They are free of the process of life and death.

what is sadness? what is anger? what is love? what is hate? if you try to prove what exists, you will come to the conclusion that you can only prove that you exist, and everything else could just be your imagination. you could be in a coma on another planer right now, and be imagining earth and everything on it.
