Happiness

*Today is a great gift you've ever had...
             
(Shad Helmstetter,2005)  
What if you won a lottery for millions and millions dollars, would it make you happier than before? Well, suddenly it does, but just for a short period of time. As Mayer stated, the general public believes that an amount of money equals to one’s happiness - and that is what I believed before-. However, According to his statement, it does not work. As he used an example that rich people do not happier than the general public, - even some of them have never felt happy – money does not necessarily make people happy but a close relationship (true friendship, happy marriage) does. Now, Happiness comes to us closer than before. ; Actually, it suddenly arises when you smile to others, and begin to see how much love you’ve received from them.

HY CHOYI, I AGREE THAT THE HAPPINESS DOESN'T DEPENDS ON THE MONEY, AND THAT CLOSE RELATIONSHIPS
ARE WHAT REALLY MATTERS IN LIFE!!!
