I really do not know why people find it so difficult to define happiness. In fact, people have tried to write books in trying to come up with something proper and have yet not succeeded.

I personally love to define things (everytime I define something, people ask me, hey where did you get that definition from). May be it is because as a child, I used to read the dictionary all the time. It was a kind of hobby for me.

Let me try to define happiness. I must say there can be other ways to define happiness as well; therefore, my own definition, I must admit, is only one definition among others possible ones.

Happiness is a state of mind in which an individual is satisfied with his environment, external as well as internal, has no sense of loss or want and feels particularly accomplished about an achievement.

I can go on to explain happiness in detail but that would not qualify for a definition I guess.
