What is Happiness? The definition of Happiness is a mental or emotional state of well-being defined by positive or pleasant emotions ranging from contentment to intense joy.
What makes you happy? I would have to say my happiness would be defined in family, church, playing the piano, residents. These residents at Grand Oaks Nursing Center are so special to me. Every day I look forward to coming in here and seeing their shining faces.
I went around and asked some of the residents what they define as happiness and these are the answers:
- Being surrounded by all of you that love me.
- Family and chocolate
- Bob my husband, God, and children.
- Amateur Radio.
- God, music.
- Love, family, activities.
- Family, being on my farm taking care of the animals.
Everyone’s happiness is defined differently. Think about what makes you happy.
