sasun jan, thank you! but don't have the wrong perception of me 'being happy' alllll the time! we all have our ups and downs...i just choose to get up faster or at least WILL myself to get up faster and dust myself off than most!~~ gotta have the following mentality: i am cool enough and fun enough to enjoy my own company just as much as i enjoy the company of others~~gotta enjoy every moment of youth, health, beauty, intelligence, opportunity, friendships, family,....that we have :) :)

Hmm.. I am not sure who you are talking about, every moderator on this forum fits that description :P :D .. or no? :rolleyes: :lol: OK maybe I know, but I am not sure how your avatar came into existence. Perhaps you would share the history of your avatar ? :rolleyes:

yes, that's true for everyone I guess. we should try to have more up times and less down times.

When I think of happiness, I think of a *dynamic* state, as opposed to an emotional stasis. Happiness , like joy, occurs with a free flowing and uninhibited emotional state of experience.

 

However, a positive emotional stasis may be "contentment".

 

To me , happiness is related to ecstasy .. to "stand outside of one's self" and reflexively -observe and experience- the subjective good, however one defines it.

oooooooh Azat dont get me started----money=happiness?? i doubt it!

as a famous rapper once said "mo' money mo' probems"

Damn moderators. Always want us to talk about the topic and never give us any room for fun.

 

 

Okay back to the topic...

 

Angel, have you seen the smiles in the office when the boss walks around and hands out checks? How can you say that money does not bring happiness? :)

Azat you may be right - but it's always temporary. I'd tend to agree with Vayri (a little, and , uh, welcome BTW) In my mind, happiness is not necessarily (or not only) an emotional state of being - simply because the emotion is temporary - happiness should not be defined as a 'feeling', frozen in one particular point in time. It is in constant flux - so you can be happy if you can objectively view your life in a dynamic sense (past, present & future) and feel satisfied that you are true to yourself, your values and those important to you.

MONEY can bring hapiness, and not only a temporary one... it is a fairy tell to say that it does not bring true happiness... go tell that to a child in a 3rd word country that need an opperation to save his life, and that he need money... would that money not bring happiness? Isen'T that true happiness? Of course it is. I can give many examples like that.

that is a total different issue- i meant money cant bring happiness to someone who already has enough- because its human nature to want more than youve got--anyway-what youre tlaking bout is not just happiness but health-life--which can bring happiness- i agree very much-but my view was from a different perspective- as in being a millionaire or being greedy when it comes to money cant always bring happines-because these things are materialistic ones-but money used for health/food/care for people whoare in poverty is a whole different issue.........

Happiness is a jump shot ;)

 

Happiness is having an old lady strike up a conversation with you in line at the Super Market

 

Happiness is your mother's hug

 

Happiness is your girl's kiss(oh guy, significant other, partner, lover, .....)

 

Happiness is Playstation 2 and some :partytime:

 

Happiness is "quitting time" on the job

 

Happiness is good friends, in the "Real World" or in Cyber Space!
