Topic: Happiness is considered very important in life. Why is it difficult to define? What factors are important in achieving happiness ?

No one can define exactly what happiness is. Although we all know the importance of it, we have different ideas of the things that can trully bring joy to our lives. In this essay, I will present some underlying reasons for this and propose recommendations for leading a happy life.

In my view, each person’s characteristics and current standard of life affect their definitions of happiness. To some people, pleasure comes along with money or we could say, property as they attach great importance to their social status and are obsessed by thinking that people judge them by appearance. With the same desire, others, however, think that money could bring them joy since they are miserably living under subsistence level. Or, an adventurous person consider journeys their happiness and precious experience. Therefore, happiness cannot have an accurate meaning but depends on the things that each of us is avid for.

On a personal level, I would have to support 3 main factors which lead to happiness. First, a person should live truly to who they are without making much effort in concealing it. Only by doing the things we love, following our own dreams, and dancing along our own beat could we feel the beauty of this world and other numerous things it could bring to us. Second, I believe earning an adequate amount of money is no less important. If you always find it hard to get by, hardly anything could ease the feeling of despair and sadness caused by the lack of money. Last but not least, since family plays a crucial role in our lives, everybody should try to contribute in establishing a stable and happy family where laughter and consideration are always around, and where we could turn to for the unfailing support and help. And those things are definitely the genuine happiness that nothing could ever replace.

In conclusion, although there are many ways to define happiness, I believe we should achieve the 3 aforementioned things in order to have a joyful life.
