Happiness is....

exactly what you want it to be. Happiness can be a form of acceptance with the reality that you might not achieve all of your goals and whatnot. As long as a person has thte ability to feel good about what they are doing, there will be happiness.

Happiness can be crushed by outside forces like parents, freinds, anything that gets in your way. Thats kind of a "no shit" statement but, when I think about philosophy, I like to think of things in the broader, "no shit" sense. Otherwise, we probably wouldn't be able to answer alot of these questions. Details get messy.
