I searched a definition for happiness, but I disagree, so I am going try to explain my own definition. Happiness, for me, is a moment where persons are in harmony with all around them, they do not need do something different, neither need get something in special. I think happiness is important like an urge for the life, but I think every felling are important and it must live fully all of them.
In particular, I am happy when I spend my time with lovely person, my family, my friends and interesting people. Does not matter if is a big celebration or a casual conversation, happiness are not in material thing or an expensive moments, happiness is in relationships. Many people do not find happiness because they do not search in the right place, many people search in luxury or beauty. Society, and in particular Chilean society, set goals too high that many people cannot get; I think Chile is not a happy country, but is important that scientist are trying to find its causes.
