The happiness is a concept very difficult to define; many people throughout history have talked about this topic (philosophers, psychologists, etc.) and all of them think different things about happiness. But I think that we all agree that happiness is a permanent good physical and mental state that all human being wishes to achieve; at least I broadly define the happiness this way.
With my own definition I might to say that there are many things that makes me happy: to do things that I like; to be with my family, friends or any loved one; to help people; to achieve my aims; and a lot of things that even I don’t know that makes me happy. And I’m sure that in the future there will be new things that make me happy too.
I don’t know exactly why for many people is so difficult to be happy, but I think that we all have problems, some more serious than others, however, how we face up the problems depend of us; we must not allow these problems ruin our happiness.
I’m not sure what the statistic says about whether Chile is a happy country or not but I know that this country has one the biggest stress rate in the world and this stress obviously damage the happiness of Chilean people.
And as the popular song says: Don’t Worry, Be Happy!!!
jajajajaja Carolina with your blog I remembered that in Chile a few months ago, Coca-cola's institute arrived to measure chilean happiness, it's a controversial topic because: How do you measure happiness?, could be Cocacola understand the happiness a different way than us.
ResponderEliminarI like Bob Marley, and I love that sentence!
ResponderEliminarI agree that the problem can’t define our own happiness, but the life would be let go. I like to think we can give direction to our lives.
Hopefully many new things appear that make you happy
According to Coca Cola's Institute, Chile is a country very happy xD. I don´t understand how they say that, and which is their way to define happiness. Anyway, Carolina I agree with you when you say that Chile is a country with a lot stress. This influence in the happiness of people.
ResponderEliminarI like your way of think about happiness and when you say that we must not allow the problems decrease our happiness.
I'll see you soon:)Bye
Excellent job, Carolina.
