I agree with these thoughts from Wikipedia ..Positive psychology researchers use theoretical models that include describing happiness as consisting of positive emotions and positive activities, or that describe three kinds of happiness: pleasure, engagement, and meaning.
Research has identified a number of attributes that correlate with happiness. These include relationships and social interaction, parenthood, marital status, religious involvement, age, income (but mainly up to the point where survival needs are met .)
The word inner contentment means more to me ;You deal with day to day problems but still maintain spark & zest for living !
Oops it's about JWN happiness ..SORRY but going to leave these thoughts with you anyway !!!!
And I do get pleasure, engagement & meaning here ! Happiness seems to correlate with interaction with others.
