What Makes You Happy In Life, Truely Happy?
I used to chase certain things in my life, thinking they would make me happy. I chased after material things, then one day I lost it all in a fire. I realized everything can be taken away from you at any time regardless of how much ‘control’ you think you have.
To answer my own question, I learned that if you can not be happy with who you are, and be happy with what you have then you will never be happy if you change who you are, and gain all the material things you could ever want. Love and the small things in life is what matters to me.

Simple life
my puppy nothing else!
Like everyone, there are things that excite me and make me happy for the immediate. Excitement, knowledge, and achievement make me happy, but I wont ever be truly happy from that alone. I don’t think anyone can say they are truly happy until they’re on their death bed and know for a fact they made something great of themselves with the time and circumstances they were given in this life. If they’re made truly happy by anything less than greatness, they’re just blind to reality and can’t see much more than beyond what is put in front of them.
I will never be truly happy unless I can tell myself I am great and the world is different because of my life. And that I wasn’t just another ‘ant’ with four limbs and a big brain.
I have found out what truly makes me happy is knowing who I am ,where I came from , values I hold in esteem, love of family and mentors that kept me strong in heart,mind and soul. That in giving ,we are given back so much more . If we are lucky enough to find and recognise our” Talent in this life ” We should give it away , For it feeds our soul .
What makes me happy… is LOVING and LOVING!
And making life the most of it, enjoying my everyday living..
Happinesss come from within. There are many things that can make us happy A new car, A new home , A newborn baby or The day that you get married . etc..Happines is something that many people have searched for long and hard and for some reason the answer have not been discovered . Think about some of the millionaires in this world .They are not really happy the smile is just for the camera. I know that I want to happy and u want to be happy , But think about it . Is there really a such of thing as happiness . There is a such thing as love and , peace , but I think that happiness is only temporary . U will be happy for a moment , but then something else will make you sad .. Just enjoy the day and you will find your happy place there among your friends ,family and yourself ..
I have been wondering what makes me happy. My problem is that i think i get so close to what makes me happy and i get scared. In the back of m mind ..( way back) I think i will get bored then. But life is a big struggle and things that I want are right in front of me. I don;t know how to exept them. Im kind of in a rut now… But i think I am in the realization phase. Im hoping these troublsome times lead to where i really need to get to in life. To be content would make me realy happy .
I am my happiest when I’m with my best friend, Anthony. He’s like the brother I actually want to be around. We always have these little rendezvous’, where I go to his place at like four in the morning, and we watch a lame movie and share a bong or two. He has this quirky, reassuring habit of giggling under his breath. It’s so adorable.
Just life in general, spending it with those you care about. I’m always happy, and laughing. I laugh at things that aren’t even funny, not even thinking about something in my head. Sometimes it can be inappropriate depending on my surroundings and situation, but generally, I’m just an energetic bubbly person
if i have a crush and i am head over heals for him then it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. if he likes me back then my life can’t get better!!:)
I am happy person (does not mean i live happy life).Life makes me happy itself.And I think you are happy to.
Happiness is different things for each person at various ages. The things that make a 3yr old happy are not the same that make a teenager or a grandmother happy.
For me, small or big things can make me happy and there are too many to list here. Generally i am happy when my basic needs are satisfied. Sincere and helpful friends, adequate food, drinks, shelter and meaningful activities and hobbies, work , etc keep me truly happy. My passion to learn about new things and to help the weak, ignorant or disadvantaged also make me happy. The secret of lasting happiness is:: Never compare your lot with others who are wealthier or in better situations than you.
I hope you, too have happiness and will constantly strive to seek it.
what makes me happy is when I’m in a dance competition
Love makes me happy, love from family, love from people who have fallen for me, n the feeling of yet to meet the one i desire!
A roof over my head, family and a good dog.
the details everyone else ignores
Having had lotsa stuff, losing it and got a little bit of stuff again, I’m a lot more relaxed with out a lotta stuff – it’s almost as if you become a slave to stuff.
You’re right; stuff can’t make you happy for long.
When you get new stuff it’s nice the first coupla times you use it but then it just turns into stuff.
If you can’t be happy by yourself, in yourself, no amount of stuff is gonna make you happy. It all becomes no more than a distraction from the main game … whatever you consider that to be

i think love is the greatest thing in human live. With it’s greatness we can feel trully happy living in this world. Money, treasure, good jobs, personal achievement, those could just make us feel happy for a while, but when we were loved by others and we create loving condition in our community, it would result happy life condition for now and for ever after, generation to generation!

what makes me happy is singing..its like..when i sing, im someone else, somewhere else..and i can be anywhere i want to..of coarse im just in my room singing to my wall, but hey, the mind can do wonders
What makes me happy in life is to feel loved. Lately, I haven’t had that feeling, so right now I’m pretty miserable.
Questions that are over asked that i have to answer is what makes me happy in life
I learned, that happiness comes from within and doesn’t depend on my surroundings. So I create the happiness I have from within.
So, through the effort of my internal practise, I become happy.
And the greatest of these is LOVE….
It’s true there is nothing better in the world than Love. But I believe that the love you give is truly what makes a person happy. You can be loved by many; however, if you do not have love in your heart you will never truly experience true happiness.
Im happy when i have a crush on someone and when im around my true friends. Then ones that can tell when im not happy. The things they say and do are so outrageous that you just can not be sad when they’re around. Those are the people you want to be attached to and they are the ones that make me happy. In loving people i am happy, but i can not do that on my own. I need my friends around or ill just fade.
what makes me happy is to show love to others and seeing others do the same brother!
What makes me most happy so far is the time when I can make other people happy. But I have this feeling that this will shifted down when, I found a true love, make a family and succeeding what I’ve been started this two years.
My son and my dogs are what truly make me the happiest! Especially my big baby Diamond(pit) she steals my heart every time I look at her !! Thats what makes me the happiest!
