We all strive to be happy, but what is happiness?
Happiness is not feeling good all the time, that state of mind is impossible to maintain: what goes up must come down (eventually).
Happiness is not something that can be bought.
Happiness is not a final destination that one should aim for.
Instead, science suggests that happiness is in fact the satisfaction we feel with everyday life, how good we feel on a daily basis.
And happiness, like weight, can fluctuate, but it can also be maintained if you want to take control of it.
