Voted : the absence of suffering
This is a great question. I guess it varies from person to person. I think I measure it on many levels and on different aspects of life. Overall, I think it might be the absence of suffering or hardship. If your life is relatively calm and good, you can say you're happy overall.
In general for life, it's probably if you're healthy, live a farily stree free life, have love and give love and if you're able to forgive those that hurt you and seek forgiveness for those that you hurt. Having a roof over your head, food and the basic neccesities also contribute to people's happiness I think.
Voted : Don't try to be MORE Happy than Happy
If you are Happy, then enjoy it. Don't say...
If I had that new car I would be Happy, or new job, or what ever. Be glad that you have a job that allows you to take care of your family. Be glad that your car runs. Just be Happy.
It's like a *keeping Up With The Jones* type of thing.... You don't have to keep up to be happy.
Voted : good health
everyday above ground is a blessing for me.
