We are all created into these world and at the point of our birth we became source of JOY and happiness to our parents despite the birth pain. These shows that no matter what happiness is very important, growing us we where taught that GOD made us to know him, to love him and to be happy with him for ever. Have you ever wondered what is the essence of life, what are we looking for in this life, everything we do in these life is for us to be happy. We where born to be happy, we grow up pursuing happiness, we try to make money so we can acquire things that will make us to be happy, we can go on and on it will continue to show that everyday we leave and everything we do is for us to be happy.
Doea happiness cost, the only cost Happiness is that it takes work … real work! It requires change and moral growth. It requires overcoming some bad habits of thought and behavior and developing some new ones.
And while it’s true that we all want to be happy because we all need to be happy but are we all ready to make sacrifices and pursue that happiness.

What make us feel happy? money is far from being in the first places of source of happiness. The main aspect that make people feel happy is the relationship with our friends and family. Friends and family can bring joy into your life that money could not buy. When you have a genuine friendship, they’ll stay by your side no matter what.
Another important element to build personal happiness is, without any doubt, the relation with work and leisure time.
