Happiness could be said to be the state of being happy!
We all need it, it's among the fuel that keeps life going.
People derive happiness from different things, such as money, family, delicacies, self actualization and so on.

When we are referring to self actualization, it’s a common way we all acquire happiness. It is the satisfaction that comes along when you achieve a task that looks difficult, thereby setting a goal while accomplishing it.
There is this happiness that radiates when you are successful in what you put your mind to do or set to achieve.
Well, The fact cannot be denied that money brings happiness. It solves 80% of the problems one may be going through in life.
There is a saying that money answers to all things!
Looking into my bank account and seeing significant figures brings smiles to my face.
Money is one of the currencies we need to achieve greatness in life. I want to believe that we are all aware that money is not the only currency we have to get things done!
Don’t get the wrong idea I am not referring to crypto or other payment means, But when we talk about relationship, it's also a currency. Some things will happen and instead of spending money, all you need to do is to make a call. That's all to getting things done.
We still have more currency like these, if I remember, money is the only hard copy and others are soft copy or digitalized forms of Payment or currency, but they can actually help in acquiring a lot, you could make further research on it. That is not the topic for today.
But the major source of happiness for me is my family. They are the best gift God has given to me. To know that they are fine, healthy and doing good is enough for me because their problem is my problem and I derive happiness from them being happy.
I love my family and can’t trade them for anything in the world.
My parents are doing their possible best to give everything they can and also to equip me with everything I need to be successful in life.
My siblings are very supportive, and I always look forward to the time we have to gist. There is nothing that can be compared to this moment of catching up with each other.
I’m still a student and one day I will have my family, but it’s not to be compared to this family that raised me.
There is a saying in Yoruba land that states, “Your wife can betray you, your husband can betray you, your children can betray you, but your family can never betray you”.
Furthermore, to maintain my happiness. I surround myself with people that can say “Debby you are not looking well today, hope all is well?” And they would go to any length to bring back that genuine smile on my face.
Let me add this to it, if you want to put a smile on my face, take me out for fun or place orders for good delicacies on my behalf and have it delivered to me. You cannot go wrong with that!
In conclusion, many things will come our way that will try to take that beautiful and genuine smile away from our face, But in psychology under Adjustment there is what we refer to as Subjective Happiness and Contentment: it is the ability to make yourself happy in every (circumstances) of life and this can easily be achieved through contentment. To achieve this, you have to work on yourself.
Always find a ray of light in every situation that comes your way, and be satisfied with everything you've got or have.
The Holy Bible said Godliness with Contentment is great gain.
