Let's Talk About Happiness

What is happiness? Is it a goal? Is it tangible? Can you confidently say that you have achieved it?

Some might say it’s talking to a loved one every day. Others might say it’s achieving their perfect body, becoming extremely successful, feeling free, or simply being themselves... Is happiness something you can actually reach? If you achieve those things, does that mean you’ve found happiness, and will it still feel the same years later? Or is happiness made up of moments sprinkled throughout life? Or is it something internal: a state of mind?

To you, is happiness a dream, a hope, a journey, a process, a goal, a destination… or a starting point?
