Happiness is different for every person. For me, happiness lies in its pursuit; happiness is the pursuit of goals and dreams and love and freedom and the ability to stop and appreciate others.

However, if I were to answer that question philosophically I would say that happiness is an emotion characterize by 'good' feelings and a Hedonic state that is enduring. The pursuit of hapiness is different between people but what characterize it remains the same. Consider the idea that someone who find pain pleasurable can find happiness in BDSM vis-a-vis the other partner may find pleasure in not receiving pain but inflicting it thus making happiness a state of self-interest with hedonistic qualities. Just my opinion.

Happiness is like peeing yourself. Everybody can see it but only you can feel its warmth. :)

happiness would be owning BOFA.com and getting that call from Bank of America to buy it

lol

depends on the bait and bounty
Indeed it does...

Perhaps you should respond in native Chinese? Might make the OP happier to see that a typo is not relegated to one person attempting to communicate in another's language.

Family, Friends, Money and a Republican in the White House.
So I guess in reverse order (a Republican in the White House) the other three just naturally fall into place?
