What is your definition of happiness?

My dear friend,

Are you finding ways to be happy?

You can be happy by creating your own definition of happiness.

Wikipedia.org says..

"Happiness is a state of mind or feeling characterized by contentment, love, satisfaction, pleasure, or joy."

You could also find other definitions from many sources in the internet nowadays.

However, the keys to happiness are not from others.

Happiness is within ourselves. Happiness is our own state of mind.

Then we all have personal power to be happy.

“Most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be.” - Abraham Lincoln

Happiness is like the taste of food. For the same food, even the same dish of food, can taste differently in each person's opinion.

So you can be happy by knowing and creating your own definition of happiness.

No need to focus on the beautiful words or sentences. It's the feeling you have that matters.

You may enjoy creating your happiness definition by choosing and defining when you are happy. You feel content and joy when you do what kinds of activities.

Take a look at this video...

The keys to happiness are You yourself and being happy at the present moment.

And you can exercise to be happy with simple things in order to own these keys.

For sharing, here is my definition of happiness...

My happiness is

• when I am eating..And I feel happier when I'm having cake ;-)
• when I read favorite big-eyes comics books.
• when I am with my friends..and I feel happier when we go for travelling together.
• when I go to the sea even when I visualize I'm sitting on the beach and hear natural music from the waves in my own mind.
• when I can do things at the level I'm intending to do.
• when I am writing this page about happiness to share with you.
• and many more...
• I also be happy when I go to restroom.. :)

Strange? In Thai language, the word "Sukh" means happiness. And the word "Sukh-kha" means restrooms.

So I normally give myself a chance to be happy every time I go to toilet.

In English, restroom may also mean a room for rest. Normally, rest makes us be happy.

You can also choose be happy everytime you go to restroom.

See these quotes on happiness what other people are happy with simple things.

"I believe that happiness can be achieved through training the mind." - Dalai Lama.

So train your mind to "Be happy with simple things".

Then you can be happy most of your time. And feel happier with bigger things.

Be happy and enjoy creating your own happiness definition.
