Happiness and sadness are inevitable experiences of life. what are your experiences as an individual?
Just being able to contemplate all forms of life around me.

Dear Sir
My words, submissions, act, advise, suggestions, etc when accepted by others, really bring happiness to me. The momentary state of happiness gives momentum to life events.
Regards,
Jahangir
Hello,
Yes, I agree with Jahangir; and I'm also happy when I achieve something. It does not have to be something big, but something that I've wanted to achieve and that I've had to put (variable amounts) of effort into. I'm even more happy when someone else is complimentary about it, or it helps someone else. It isn't momentary, but it does not last for long.
I also feel happiness from being with people who I get on well with and enjoy their company.
I feel sad if I've tried to do something good - with the best intentions - and it has been misunderstood.
Very best wishes,
Mary
Hello sir,
The states of happiness and sadness are ephemeral. Combinations of different situations bring about happiness or sadness. The absence of one is the presence of the other.
As an individual, what makes me happy is the fulfillment of personal or shared goals/ideals and the perceived positive impact made on others.
What makes me sad is the direct opposite of what makes me happy. I hate to see social injustice, unashamed prejudice/discrimination, man's inhumanity to man, promotion of social vices, addictions, penury and modern-age slavery.
Just being able to contemplate all forms of life around me.

Taking care of my health and the health of my family and friends, practicing Qigong and meditation. Reading, listening to music, traveling, and writing. Nature, blue sky :)
It makes me happy to live, to know, to learn, to live together, to communicate, to give, to serve and to be.
Being in the present is happy, and working for future strives.
Picking up the good things from the past, being in association with positive people and making contributions to my society and nation makes me happy. Lastly keeping an optimistic approach for the future also keeps me happy.
Working hard towards achieving my goals and objectives makes me happy.
When the rights are given to the citizen and the duties carried out by its officials. so,the hope, security, peace and a happy life will be realized.
Happy people spend time with others and spend the least time alone. We all need support from others, friendships and meaningful relationships.
Happy people don’t judge themselves by what others do or have. They feel comfortable judging themselves by their own measures.
Forget the new car, the bigger house, and the big screen TV! Materialism is toxic for happiness.
No matter what happens, happy people stay optimistic. They look at the glass half full versus half empty.
Staying optimistic leads to action. It’s not just what you believe or your outlook on life that contributes to happiness, but action follows.
Remember the adage, “It is better to give then to receive?” This is true of happy people. They aren’t self-absorbed and are more satisfied with life.
We all have strengths and weaknesses, but happy people know their strengths and use them. They share their talents.
Gratitude is part of being a happy person. Happy people feel it, appreciate small things and people. Life is a gift and so are the good things that happen to them
People who are willing to forgive others are happy people. Forgiveness prevents bitterness or feelings of resentment. Be quick to forgive and you will live a happier life. Forgiveness is the strongest link to happiness.
Happy people develop intimacy and growth in relationships. They invest in people and are willing to examine themselves in relationships and grow.
Shift your focus from material things to appreciating the beauty of our world. Build your intimate relationships and grow as a person. Do everything with a sense of giving and gratitude. Not only will you make the world better, but you will be happier!
Be well with God, neighbours, and the environment make me happy.
The more thing that makes me happy is to help the people poor if even with a good word Or a few money
I feel happy when I am not selfish and think about what benefits me only and that I do not cause harm to others
Happy people don’t judge themselves by what others do or have. They feel comfortable judging themselves by their own measures.
As I went through all the answers, I found that everyone has his own perspective of happiness. This confirms that happiness can take different shapes and people formulate it according to their needs. I feel that there is a strong relationship between the term of happiness and what we need in this life. The mercy of God "Allah, the one and only" makes us have different perspectives of happiness.
The Russian actor Leonov said: "Happiness is when you want to work in the morning, and in the evening you go home."

Dear Kayode Asaju ,
In my opinion, when you do not think about whether you are happy - Then You are happy.

Making a positive impact, helping others improve their situation makes me happy. In addition being in harmony with others as well as being inferiorly connected to my source of life make me happy.
Я так так счастлива, что моя жизнь прошла без войны!
I am happy to have my life without the war !
Dear Kayode
I think happiness is optional and not compulsory
The conviction and pursuit of my wishes is the important thing that makes me happy
The Frustration, despair and injustice make me sad

Cognitive researcher Nancy Etcoff looks at happiness — the ways we try to achieve and increase it, the way it's untethered to our real circumstances, and its surprising effect on our bodies.

Dear Colleagues, Good Day,
"Make Yourself Happy
I always thought there were two types of people. Ones who make others happy and the ones who depend on others to make them happy. But I figured out there is a third type as well .. Ones who make themselves happy. I have been giving it a thought. It has taken me days to actually figure out... it is us who will make ourselves happy. We don't really have to depend on others for that. People will argue these things are easier said than done. Really? Are they. Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions. How do we actually define happiness? Hmm. I read somewhere. "Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony. " We can find happiness just by noticing minor things around us. I mean .. Don't wait for people to make you happy because eventually no one will . Any happiness you get you've got to make yourself.
-Go out for a walk with cool breeze blowing early morning and have a look at the fresh flowers and greenery around you, it will make you happy. -Try something new and exciting. Anything that you have never done before in your life. That will make you happy. -Watch a movie, something that will make you laugh, that will relax you. Make you forget about the tensions and worries and burden of real life, that will make you happy. -Look at the moon and stars at night, focus on them, it will give you that calmness, that unnoticed calmness that you won't even feel but will make you happy. -Play with kids? I mean, just play with them, spend time with them no matter how annoying they look, they do such stuff that you have no choice but to love, it will make you happy. -Do things yourself, everything that is related to you, do it yourself and don't ask others to help you with it, it will give you satisfaction, which will make you happy. -Instead of just telling people what your hobbies are, give time to your hobbies. That will make you happy.
I mean there is a long long list of things that we can do for ourselves. Guess we mostly confuse satisfaction with happiness. If we are satisfied we think we are happy, but that is not the case, we can be satisfied but not happy, we can be happy yet not satisfied. Be happy with what you have and are, be generous with both, and you won't have to hunt for happiness. It isn't something that stays with you forever, there will be sparks of it. More if you make yourself happy, less if you will wait others to make you happy. It all depends on you. "

"10 Ways to Be Happier
How happy are you―really? If there’s room for improvement, try one of these suggestions.
By GRETCHEN RUBIN
A few years ago, on a morning like any other, I had a sudden realization: I was in danger of wasting my life. As I stared out the rain-spattered window of a New York City bus, I saw that the years were slipping by.
“What do I want from life?” I asked myself. “Well…I want to be happy.” I had many reasons to be happy: My husband was the tall, dark, handsome love of my life; we had two delightful girls; I was a writer, living in my favorite city. I had friends; I had my health; I didn’t have to color my hair. But too often I sniped at my husband or the drugstore clerk. I felt dejected after even a minor professional setback. I lost my temper easily. Is that how a happy person would act?
I decided on the spot to begin a systematic study of happiness. (A little intense, I know. But that’s the kind of thing that appeals to me.) In the end, I spent a year test-driving the wisdom of the ages, current scientific studies, and tips from popular culture. If I followed all the advice, I wanted to know, would it work?
Well, the year is over, and I can say: It did. I made myself happier. And along the way I learned a lot about how to be happier. Here are those lessons.
1. Don’t start with profundities.
2. Do let the sun go down on anger.
3. Fake it till you feel it .
4. Realize that anything worth doing is worth doing badly.
5. Don’t treat the blues with a “treat.”
6. Buy some happiness.
7. Don’t insist on the best.
8. Exercise to boost energy.
9. Stop nagging.
10. Take action. "...

Rights and duties under the law, respect and implementation.
Thinking produces happy-chemicals, as does writing a decent sentence, publishing a poem, constructing an adequate thought, arguing persuasively a difficult idea-
stimulating my sons, resolving other's problems, ignoring my own.
I find life good, even in the midst of trouble. Better to live badly, than not at all.
What makes you happy?
Happiness and sadness are inevitable experiences of life. what are your experiences as an individual?

In fact, there is neither happiness nor unhappiness. There is our individual "picture of the world," which we create consciously or subconsciously.

According to Robert Dilts

The map is not a territory.
People react to their own perception of reality.
Each person has his own individual map of the world. No single map - the reflection of the world - is more "genuine" or "real" than any other.
The meaning of communication lies in the reaction it causes, regardless of the intentions of the communicator.
The most "wise" and "friendly" cards - those that provide the most wide and rich choice of opportunities, and not those that are the most "genuine" or "accurate."
People already possess (at least potentially) all the resources necessary for effective action.
Any behavior - even the most cruel, crazy and unimaginable - is the choice of the best option available at the moment, based on the capabilities and abilities of a person, determined by his model of the world.
Changes occur when appropriate resources are released or activated within a specific context, by enriching the person's world map.
Life and "mind" are systemic processes.
The processes occurring in man and in the interaction of man with the environment are systemic. Our bodies, communities and the Universe form an ecology of complex systems and subsystems that constantly interact and influence each other.
It is impossible to completely isolate any part of the system from the rest of the system. People can not help influencing each other. Interactions between people form such feedback circuits that the person on himself experiences the effects of his actions on other people.
Systems are "self-organizing" and tend to a natural state of poise and stability. No defeats - there is only feedback.
No reaction, experience, or deed has meaning outside its context or outside the response that they entail. Any behavior, experience or reaction can serve as a resource or limiting factor, depending on how much they are consistent with the rest of the system.
Not all interactions in the system occur at the same level. What is positive at one level may turn out to be negative on the other. It is very useful to separate one's act from one's own "I", that is, positive intentions, a function, beliefs, etc., that cause this act, from the act itself.
Any behavior (at certain levels) has a "positive intention". It is perceived or perceived as positive and acceptable in the context where they were developed, and from the point of view of the person who committed the act. It is much easier and more productive to react to intentions than to problematic behavior.
The environment and contexts are changing. The same action will not always lead to the same result. For successful adaptation and survival, some flexibility is required. The level of flexibility is proportional to the variability of the rest of the system. As the system becomes more complex, more and more flexibility is required.
If your actions do not find the expected response, you must vary your behavior until you reach the desired.
Dear Colleagues, Good Day,
"How to Be Happy
Behavioral scientists have spent a lot of time studying what makes us happy (and what doesn’t). We know happiness can predict health and longevity, and happiness scales can be used to measure social progress and the success of public policies. But happiness isn’t something that just happens to you. Everyone has the power to make small changes in our behavior, our surroundings and our relationships that can help set us on course for a happier life.
Mind
Happiness often comes from within. Learn how to tame negative thoughts and approach every day with optimism.
CONQUER NEGATIVE THINKING
All humans have a tendency to be a bit more like Eeyore than Tigger, to ruminate more on bad experiences than positive ones. It’s an evolutionary adaptation — over-learning from the dangerous or hurtful situations we encounter through life (bullying, trauma, betrayal) helps us avoid them in the future and react quickly in a crisis.
But that means you have to work a little harder to train your brain to conquer negative thoughts. Here’s how:
Don’t try to stop negative thoughts. Telling yourself “I have to stop thinking about this,” only makes you think about it more. Instead, own your worries. When you are in a negative cycle, acknowledge it. “I’m worrying about money.” “I’m obsessing about problems at work.”
Treat yourself like a friend. When you are feeling negative about yourself, ask yourself what advice would you give a friend who was down on herself. Now try to apply that advice to you.
Challenge your negative thoughts. Socratic questioning is the process of challenging and changing irrational thoughts. Studies show that this method can reduce depression symptoms. The goal is to get you from a negative mindset (“I’m a failure.”) to a more positive one (“I’ve had a lot of success in my career. This is just one setback that doesn’t reflect on me. I can learn from it and be better.”) Here are some examples of questions you can ask yourself to challenge negative thinking.",...

When people are happy, especially the elderly, the weak and children, are am so happy. May God (Allah) bless such ones and renew their strengths all the time.
We constantly work towards becoming our best, happiest selves. Happiness is a journey. Sometimes we find happiness or sometimes happiness find us along this journey. We experience several moments of happiness in our life. I enjoy every bit of positive events. Walking in nature, talking with my parents and children, reading books, appreciations to my work and comments/answers by RG colleagues, etc. make me feel happy indeed.
Hahaha!!
There are so many things that makes me happy. some of them are when overcoming the most challenging task, helping others and see them feeling happy, when playing with my kids when observing their acts and happiness, funning with my mom, finishing my daily task on time, etc.
Happiness is a state of mind which can be gained in any situation or any circumstances. It varies from person to person. So I am trying to be happy always although thoughts do drag you to refrain you to be happy
A deliberate decision to be happy irrespective of the prevailing circumstances.
