" Its sometimes better people don't get to know you..
Cuz the more they know you, the less they understand & accept you..
Alone is better, what say " - SRK
I think happiness is something that is personal to each individual. What makes one person happy will not necessarily make another person happy and so I think if one were to attempt a universal definition of happiness, it would be a futile exercise.
I don't even know what makes me happy. You've got me thinking now!

Happiness lies in contenment, it lies in the happiness of your loved ones and the ones you care about. Happiness lies in the happiness of your creator... you are then rewarded for pleasing your creator by being blessed in this dunya; which then brings about further happiness.
Happiness is seeing somebody you love smile, or thank you or show you they appreciate you. Happiness lies in the happiness of the heart, mind and soul.
happyness is hard to define eeee can i write a essay
for me happyness comes from the inside then it shows on the outside, like you need to feel that umph feelin, like when you do a good deed, you get that feelin Allah (swt) is happy with you, that happyness is nex level
normal level, when im haapy its smiles, and fun, like if im happy i feel like everyone around me has to be happy, so happyness involves your loved ones, also when im happy i feel like the world is happy, like even if its rainin everythin jus seems happy, the flowers seem like they smile, the ugly buildins look colourful lol, jus the world seems great
may Allah (Swt) always give us sakinaah and tru tru happyness!
i feel many people need to be more happy, theirs no point of bein down, stuff happens move on and live your life
Jaa-Ro-Nee-Mo!!!
"they ask you when will the help of Allah (swt) come! Certainly Allah (Swt) help is always near"
And its really true, coz when ur depressed, things like rain etc make u feel down but wen ur hippy hoppy happy den rain and stuff seems bootiful and like the grass is green the sky is blue the birds are singin and the fish are swimmin and the whole world rocksssss
^ yeah but then when your depressed, even the spinnin candy floss looks like poison!!!
but seriously, we are all Allah (Swt) creations, and we should be like in sujood to him 24/7, he has told us the cure for everytin, yet we still abandon his ways and follow others and we make mistakes and he forgives us and we keep doin the same thin, and he keeps forgivin us, so we should like learn from mistakes and be happy,
like many people dwell too much about whats happens, its gone, the milk is split it cant go back in the glass!! so why worry over it
and people think about the future... it aint come, cross the bridge when you get their bredrin and how do you know you will be a part of the future anyway!!
and people worry over trivial thins lol, like marriage, who wans to marry me? bla bla bla, you will get married jus be patient, as they say if you eat the fruit before its ripe you will erm die so marriage aint a everyday thin, take your time and woo hoo
i know ivegone off topic so back on topic
happyness also for me implies babies, like you know their little samosa type hands and they are free from like any worries all in their own worlds, thats what happyness is all bout free from worries and livin the life
Jaa-Ro-Nee-Mo!!!

this may sound a little slurpy but it works pretty well for me (at least part time).
being content with who you are, being content with what you have, seeing some slice of natural beauty daily and feeling a deep sense of gratitude for god's innumerable gifts.

Actually you may just have a point, in some cases that may be known as reaction formation but we're not in lesson so lets leave it at that
here...lets look at my dictionary, (i hate the english language so shurrup i do it MY way )
Happiness - something u get to cover up ur depression, sadness, death wantingness, hopeless, lifeless, anger, madness, pissedoffyness, trustlessness, OR boredom..ness. example: Im so freakin full of that crappy happiness!!
Happy - Something u say when u feel happiness , like when someone ask u how u are, u say "im happy as hell" then u smile the cover up smile. without breakin a tear
much better definitions than this...
Happiness - the quality or state of being happy. good fortune; pleasure; contentment; joy. bulllll
Happy - delighted, pleased, or glad, as over a particular thing: to be happy to see a person. characterized by or indicative of pleasure, contentment, or joy: a happy mood; a happy frame of mind.
dictionaries crack me up
AAAnyways, before people start jumpin at meh..peace ouuut. btw u can buy my ghetto safa dictionary for freeeee in pm's
Sis Truemuslim I don't want a dictionary from you..my bro already has his one lol..Well Happiness to me is the feeling you have when you see someone happy because of you, when you see someone smile, I feel that happiness is what you have to make yourself feel because no one else will really have time to do it..I mean there are times people are down but what good is it? It's not making others happy nor is it helping anyone..ALl you gotta do is chill..when you are sad..do something to help you...I feel that volunteering helps you feel happy..
When I used to help the older people ..after I was done they would always smile at me and the same with me..

seeing is believing *i don't see anything , i see dead people*
happiness is a reflection of ones internal self. So a person who is happy usually smiles because it is a projection of the persons heart, soul and mind.

^ I like your definition...sums it up. Happiness is also contagious and can be used to inspire those around you.
The ultimate happiness lies in pleasing the Creator.
....If thou knowest not thy God, thou art a slave of men;
And if thou dost, thy slaves are kings and potentates.
The heart’s freedom is kingly; its slavery is death,
It is for thee to decide — to be a king or a slave.
[Baal-e-Jibreel, Allama Iqbal 1935]

Three simple rules in life:
1) If you do not go after what you want, you will never have it
2) If you don't ask, the answer will always be no.
3) If you do not step forward, you'll always be in the same place
Happiness is contentment in the heart, peace of mind, a sense of stability, joy in the heart, a righteous attitude, good behaviour and being content with what is sufficient. - A'id al Qarni
