Which is better ? The best place to be or simply just Happiness?

[axe168]

Ok ok.. some say 'this' place is good.. some say 'that' place is better.. How about happiness ? Are you HAPPY at all ?

Do we have bench mark to measure happiness?

It will be interesting to know..

PLACES don't bring happiness. Events and achievements do.

Oei...just look back at the events for the past five years and are you sure you haven't achieve anything???

If one wants to seek happiness, one my first learn how to be content.

I've learned a lot about myself since arriving in Oz, and from there have come to be at peace with the things I am or am not capable of doing. From there, I sought to excel in the things I was good in and found contentment.

Hmmm.. I did actually the opposite.

For me the most important thing is "Time". I have the adequate time to do the things I wana do.. My 'private time' is not compromised in anyway.. This makes me happy.

What?

Happiness is personal. A person, a place, or a thing WONT make anyone truly happy. Money wont make you happy. Dont tell me you thing external influences is the secret to happiness?

Its something you cultivate, something you attain.

On a last note, sociologists WILL TELL YOU when a nation transitions from a simple, laid back, easy going country filled with "happy people" and a lower cost of living to a nation consumed with a faster pace of living, longer working hours, dual income families, costs, inflation etc people become "less happy"

not bashing - but you know very well what has changed in what country in the last ten years.
