Happiness is...

My eldest son will occasionally asked me if I am happy. Of course I will say "Yes" and then will contemplate about what I said.

Happiness...so easy to say but will always make you think of its true meaning. My office mate once told me that in order for a person to be happy, he/she must learn to live a simple life.The more your life gets complicated the harder it will be to achieve the true meaning of happiness. The priest in my kids' school once said in his homily that grandeur, wealth and fame will only give you temporary pleasure. It is love and faith that gives endless joy to a person.

So what makes me happy? The thought that my loved ones are well and happy...my children are safe and sound...both myself and my husband have good jobs...and knowing that there is a God who loves us unconditionally, these are the things that can make me truly happy.
