What brings happiness?

Happiness...

A psychology professor, in college, told me that people are basically seeking happiness. So the question is what brings happiness? Here is a list based on some of the best research. Maybe you would like to add to the list:

1. Loving and being loved
2. Family
3. Friendship
4. Meaningful work or hobby
5. Cash flow
6. Freedom to travel and eat out when you wish
7. Reflection on a good life

The pursuit of money alone will not bring happiness. It does help us to do the things we want to do, but love, family, friends, laughter are what bring happiness. I think Zig Ziglar said it best, "I like what money can buy, I love what money cannot buy. Money can buy you a house, but it cannot buy you a home. Money can buy you a bed, but it cannot buy you a night's rest. Money can buy you a partner, but it cannot buy you love."
