    Title says it all, peoples opinions on what they believe is happiness, and if you feel you are happy with life? also, and more importantly, can it be bought and how much will it cost me? :p

    Contentment in general... in a job you like, with a person you love, somewhere you like... surrounded by money ;)

    It's a film, think it was on RTE 2 a couple of weeks back - dont expect to feel very happy afterwards if you do watch it though !

    Happiness is being prepared for the collapse of society and having your motorbike and katana already stored, with the shotgun on its way.

    I would agree with the contentment comment

    True happiness is like optimum population in economics... a tiny change to life will make you less happy. Much like the tiniest change in population will make everyone that little bit less well off.

    Either way, happiness is contentment... I don't think happiness is a "strong" feeling like terror or something, I think it's something that's just there. Obviously there's those days you feel especially happy and on top of the world but that's something else, that's happiness' bigger stronger brother.

    "Happiness is hard to find" (said in a french accent)

    From the film "Beverly Hillbillies" i think...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,866 ✭✭✭Adam


    Ah, so thats not to say it cant be found if you look really really hard? Under the seats of the couch, under your bed and under the passenger seat of your car are always the places to look if you cant find something, anybody had any luck...? :D
