A smile is always in style.

To John and Pool

We can define happiness, We must

I apologize for taking so long to answer back. I have been researching the field of happiness alphabetically for the past four months, everything from apples, beer and candy to x-rays, yelling and zoology.  

Smiling, Laughter, Humor, Comedy.

I can not define what causes people to be happy, but there are basic universal aspects to happiness that we see both vertically (across the globe today) as well as horizontally (thru history)  This is the condition we will call “Happiness” It involves a biopsychosocial  state of mind.

just because different things make different people happy does not mean the actual experience of happiness is not similar for all. Some people like apple flavored beer with candy others like giraffes, they all experience similar brain patterns and chemical reactions as well as physical states  when enjoying these things.

  1. Wow. What a coincidence. I just made an apple flavored beer. And it made me very happy. The candy part you can keep. I'll take a steak thank you very much.
    True everyone has different things that make them happy, but what about the universal themes that everyone enjoys. Since we all have the same hardware (more or less), it makes sense that we would all experience the same brain wave frequency when we're enjoying things.
    Let it be know thought that I never met anyone who didn't like pizza.
    Great post Dan.
