Mine is basic: a job that can provide enough food, water and a bed in a room, plus unlimited internet access; a few thousand bucks in the checking account…hey, I will be happy as a bird.

Beautiful loving wife. Or girlfriend for now.
Enough money to never work again.
Good friends and enough money to have the basics.
I felt the happiest I’ve felt in a long time last wed. I woke up at around 4am, I could hear rain hitting my bedroom window, it was very cold outside and I didn’t have to get up early. My two pugs were beside my bed, in their beds, snoring very loudly. It made me very happy for some odd reason.
good friends, good books, good music, money (negotiable)
I think that I am happy and have reached a state of “happiness.” I think happiness is about being satisfied, content, joyous, hopeful and at peace all at once.
It is very difficult to describe.
To me, happiness means being able to just “be” no matter where I am-- home, work, etc.
(this is quite an accomplishment for someone who, in the past, could never just “be”)
Unfettered by outside irritants like enormous debt, family trauma and the like. Free to be free in my head. That and a pack of smokes, and everything’s Jake!
Hell if I know. I can barely remember the last time I was truly happy. :shrug:
