happiness, is defined by you.

when living in the lap of luxury, and enjoying a life of quality is happiness to you, then you will never be happy without money.

but when living a simple life with a warm and sweet home to be in, and best friends who would always stick with you through everything and anything is happiness to you, then money ain't everything anymore.

you could be struggling to make ends meet, and facing many problems in life, but if you have these much in life- friends and family that you love and love you, making you feel warm and fuzzy inside, isn't it enough ?

happiness are like flowers. different flowers blooms out to have different colours and fragrance. they might be in clusters or just a single flower, and they might be small or big, just like how happiness blooms out in different ways. at times we might not feel happiness but that's not because happiness does not exist, but because its turn to bloom has not come yet.

happiness is like oxygen sometimes. it seems to be all around you, filling your surroundings all the time, just that we often do not notice. just like oxygen, happiness blends in with your life, too well that you don't notice until you need it. without it, you will not be able to go on with life. and the fact that you are still able to wake up every morning and do everything like you can, means happiness is still in the air.

happiness is not seen with your eyes, but felt with your heart. because sometimes, what you see might not always be true, because there are too many words left unsaid, and too many things we can't control. love and affection for someone might not be shown explicitly all the time, but you can feel it with your heart if it's there. the things you do for the people you love, the small small things, from tucking a kid to sleep, to going to all lengths to help someone.

if all you want is to be happy, love your life the way it is. most of us are not "happy" because we want to be happier than others, which is impossible, because we always tend to feel inferior when comparing lives to others, thinking that other people always has it better.
