So, what is happiness?

Happiness could be different to different people. Great minds such as philosophers, religious leaders, writers and thinkers throughout human history have always asked themselves this basic question.

My personal experience is happiness could be really simple or really complex depending on who you are. I used to be amazed to see how little children find happiness. It doesn’t take much to make a little kid happy, just a piece of candy is enough to make them smile.
