What is happiness?

Happiness means different things to different people. To some, happiness may means "shiok", "joy", "peace", "lucky", "yummy", "happy" and to others it may means "enlightment", "a sense of purpose", "true happiness" etc. Lord Richard Layard, Founder, Action for Happiness defines it as "We all want to be happy and we want the people we love to be happy. Happiness means feeling good about our lives and wanting to go on feeling that way. Unhappiness means feeling bad and wanting things to change".

Each of us has a different interpretation of what happiness is and it is personal.

What is happiness to you?
