  3. Happiness for me is the feeling I get at the end of a race knowing I have accomplished it. This moment can only be described as being so joyous that you forget about all the bad things in life.

  6. Happiness to me is going to my Nonny's house every Sunday for dinner. It is a great way to begin the next busy week by relaxing and sharing laughs with my family. I am the most happy when I am in the presence of my family when we are all virtually stress free.

  7. To me, happiness is what is felt when I do something that I enjoy so much that I could do that thing over and over again and never become bored, such as slashing fresh powder while snowboarding.

  11. Happiness is more than an emotion you feel, more than any feeling you can explain. happiness is an expression of positive energy you can't control. happiness to me is when I am in complete bliss and my problems go away for a split second and I can live in the moment.

  24. Happiness to me is when you get away from the anger in the world. Setting up a little cabin in the woods, living off the land, maybe having a horse or two, and of course do some hunting and fishing. That's what would bring me happiness.
