Could You Be Happier?

Happiness is what you feel when what you want to happen happens & unhappiness is what we feel when what we want to happen does not happen. Is that true? 

Happiness is a pleasant emotion that gives you a joy. Based on the article that I have read The Degree of Happiness by Betrand Russell said that happiness is a different thing to different people. There are sorts of different happiness. Some people think it is either that we have all been looking for happiness at the wrong places or that it is simply not possible to achieve happiness.  The answer is not very easy. 

From my opinion, happiness is such a precious thing that the whole of the world is continuously receiving and looking to find it. It’s a very different explanation when asked to different people.


When we are asked about what makes us happy we may talk about anything. Some people feel often feel grateful for what they have example their family and their work. Maybe some people they feel grateful because of satisfaction, at knowing that they have worked hard, perhaps found unexpected solutions to problems and give a good feeling of satisfaction and pleasure to them. We can be happy with ourselves and happy with what we have. 

But somehow one may argue that a life of no happiness will become colourless and dull. But this is not true. We can achieve the happiness anywhere and anytime.  Everything everyone does is for a reason, to achieve something else. When we achieve something and the payoff is not as great as the hard work that we gave don’t worry because it is the greater significance to us.
