For centuries, we have searched for the meaning of happiness, and to this day, we still search. We all want to be happy but don't always know how to. Everyone has a distinctly different definition of happiness.
For some, happiness is traveling around the world, seeking thrilling adventures, eating all the foods that the world has to offer, and meeting new people.
For others, happiness is settling down with someone you love, starting a family, and building a home. What gives someone joy can be a place of utter discomfort for another. Likewise, laughing and smiling does not mean that someone is happy.
People have learned to smile and laugh through the pain, hiding a lot that's disturbing them. Do not think that just because someone is laughing out the loudest or has the widest smile, they are happy.
Happiness is bliss, a state of being filled with joy, contentment, fulfillment, and satisfaction. It sounds easy, but life has a way of distracting happy moments and flipping them over real fast.
