I haven’t clear what reality is happiness, but I think that is something you feel inside, is more that a sensation or frame of mind. For me the happiness is not necessarily great, for this I can be happy even when sad (my mom doesn’t understand that). For example, when I moved to Chile, I felt sad because I missed my family, my pets and my “life”, but also I felt happy because I was doing what I had chosen.
I´m happy almost always because I feel I have the choice how to live. I love to travel to Uruguay and in my country I happy just to listen to another talk or walk on the beach drinking “mate”.
In Santiago the people live to fast, hardly the eyes are crossed on the subway. Maybe that is the reason because the people aren’t happy.
In conclusion I think that happiness has more to do whit how we choose to live whit external circumstance, so I’m happy.
Hi Evangelina! I really love your way of think about happiness. Sometime I forget that happiness is an opcion to live and I'm pessimistic. I think a lot in the social factors when I think in the happiness. But you are right,there are many people that despite of their social situation are happy.
