Happiness is very subjective.
One man's (or woman's) happiness is another man's (or woman's) sorrow.
I think better question would be perhaps - what level or degree of freedom you feel in your life...just a thought...
I sent my Soul through the Invisible,
Some letter of that After-life to spell:
And by and by my Soul return'd to me,
And answer'd "I Myself am Heav'n and Hell :"

Rather happy.
Existence precedes essence.
Not at all happy…
It is strange that people should tend to measure their happiness by how much they want, or, rather, don’t want. They say, I don’t want much, I am satisfied, and therefore I am happy. Yet, I have always found deep unhappiness rooted in my lack of desire. Or, perhaps what makes me unhappy is a perverted want of nothing that can never quite be satisfied.
I do believe that you are responsible for making yourself happy, yet happiness can only be achieved if circumstance has enabled you to achieve it. There are clear cases where circumstances prevent people from procuring those things necessary for their happiness. Thus, I don’t think that happiness is wholly a matter of “working hard at it,” for some people it’s just impossible.
Because by being unhappy you’re making the world stink that much more.
some days are better than the others.
i'll take my happiness where i can find them.
I chose rather happy because I won't be very happy
until there is no more child abuse, injustice, natural disasters,
consumerism, ecological irresponsibility, thieves, war, etc etc etc...
...perhaps I'm overthinking it
I have come to terms with the future. From this day onward I will walk easy on the earth. Plant trees. Kill no living things. Live in harmony with all creatures. I will restore the earth where I am. Use no more of its resources than I need. And listen, listen to what it is telling me.~ M.J. Slim Hooey
