(I am not sure if this is the place to ask this, but I wanted to anyway.)

The title sums it all up pretty well. What is happiness for you? How would you describe it?
“True glory consists in doing what deserves to be written, and writing what deserves to be read.”
― Pliny the Elder

Smiles. Lots and lots of smiles-if everyone else is happy, I am happy
Our mind is a network of doorways, each one leading to a different room of thoughts and imagined ideas. Every time we read or learn about something new, a new network of doorways is born

Eating Dark-chocs, candies, choc fudge ice cream, tamarinds, straw berries and lichees...ha ha ha...actually my real happiness is in reading books, playing music...and drawing...no wait...I'd also like to sit on a sofa and watch movies...

Can the lonely take the place of you
I sing myself a quiet lullaby
Let you go and let the lonely in
To take my heart again"

It's either guiding angel or tempting demon lol.

The subject is a catalyst, a character, but our responsibility is, has to be, to the work."

My happiness comes from people. Friends, family, really close friends, or strangers- they all seem to know how to make me laugh, and when I'm laughing that's generally when I'm at my happiest.

Video games, writing, animals, and no school are happiness to me!

Peace with myself and others.
We're all stories in the end.

I think of you as a fairy with a green dress and a flower crown and stuff.

Singing songs and my favorite (baby) brother... it seems that those are the only two things that make me truly happy these days -_-

For me, happiness is seeing my family and friends happy. Helping others. And getting closer to God!
