What's it like to feel happy?
Many people can tell you their definition of the word..
A favourite past time,
A friend,
A feeling.

Life itself is my definition of being happy.
The feeling of being able to speak.
To feel things around you.
To know what it's like to love.
To express your love to someone beloved.

To live an extroadinary life is happiness.
But even to live an ordinary life is happiness.
It is a great thing to be alive.

The emotions shared amongst close ones.
This is my meaning of the word happy.
What's your meaning of the word HAPPY.
