What is happiness to you?
It can be hard to search for this elusive state of happiness, but philosophy is a subject that I’m gradually getting more into as a way to find those answers.
WHAT IS HAPPINESS TO YOU?
It’s a bunch of things for me:
- Having enough money to pay for my needs (food, shelter, clothing)
- Having a job that interests and challenges me
- Being confident and sure of who I am as a person
- Seeing the world regulated with a form of justice or karma
- Being able to do what I want

Happiness is having zero worries! No worries about how I’ll pay the bills, or if I can afford to travel, etc.

Agreed
Marie-Josée says:
I am happy when I am debt free (except my mortgage), when I spend a lot of time surrounded by the people I love and when I have a lot of free time. I devote a lot of time to shopping for food and cooking, nurturing my health and the health of the planet aligns with my values and that makes me happy too.

I love your ideals.

People treating me with respect and financial stability – I get very frustrated otherwise 🙁

When do people not respect you???

Happiness is people I love. Having enough money does not hurt, either.

“Enough” is the key word
