Our first question was an introduction to the topic, in which we found a definitive, literal meaning to the word. We found our information from vocabulary.com because we thought it gave us a detailed definition for Happiness.
https://www.vocabulary.com/dictionary/happiness"Happiness is a sense of well-being, joy, or contentment. When people are successful, or safe, or lucky, they feel happiness. The "pursuit of happiness" is something this country is based on, and different people feel happiness for different reasons. Whenever doing something causes happiness, people usually want to do more of it. No one ever complained about feeling too much happiness."
"You don't need much guidance about life skills that contribute to happiness
You've mastered the art of happiness, and are absolute joy to be around, way to go! Even though you are a shining light in a dark world, there's always room to work on yourself, below are a few steps to get started.
Step 1: Enroll in our happiness course. Given your advanced level of happiness, this course is great for explaining why you are so happy, so that you never lose your edge.
Step 2: Do our advanced relationships challenge. Invite a friend, relative or coworker to have a drink or a meal at least once a week and ask them about their greatest dreams and/or their greatest challenges. With a little luck, they might ask you the same questions.
Step 3: Do our advanced positive mindset challenge. Write a letter of gratitude to someone who has had a significant impact on your life, and who may not realize it."------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

But if you want to be truly happy, you need to move to Richmond, stat. Sure, it might be all the way out in Zone 4, but according to Rightmove's annual Happy at Home Index, it's the happiest borough in London.
The survey asked 23,989 people in Great Britain to rate their local area according to 12 'happiness factors', including safety, green spaces, cultural activities and community spirit. Richmond upon Thames scooped the top spot in London, followed by Kingston upon Thames, Bromley, Sutton and Wandsworth.
At the other end of the spectrum, Barking and Dagenham was voted the most miserable borough in the London, as well as the worst place to live in the UK. That's out of 206 places, so it must be pretty bloody awful. According to the survey, other crap places to live in London include Newham, Brent, Islington and Hillingdon."--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
