Happiness is important for everyone. Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success don’t bring lasting happiness. Happiness depends on ourselves. That means we make our own happiness.

Some people believe that if they are rich, they will be able to do anything they want, which means happiness. However, other people believe that their health and freedom can make them happy.

Here are a few ways to help you find happiness.

The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future, for example, getting into college or getting a good job. But we don’t enjoy the present. You should enjoy life's simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends usually enjoy happier and healthier lives.

The second secret of happiness is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget about your problems and only think about the activities.

Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. According to studies, people feel good when they do many meaningful things for others. If you want to feel happier, do something nice for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to get food for an old neighbour, or simply help around the house.
