me to type in English. First and foremost, what is your definition of happiness which is measured by what?
Here is the definition borrowed from Wikipedia for your reference and kind consideration:
Happiness is an emotional or affective state that feels good or pleasing. Overlapping states or experiences associated with happiness include wellbeing, delight, health, safety, contentment, and love, while contrasting ones include suffering, sadness, grief, anxiety, and pain. Happiness is often correlated to the presence of favorable events (such as a promotion, a marriage, lottery winnings, picking the right stocks at the right times, sitting next to a beautiful girl during the long and boring flights, etc.) and the absence of troubles or bad luck (such as accidents, hitting a deer or being hit by a deer, sleeping at the same hotel room with boss who snores like a pig, getting fired, divorce, conflicts, etc.).
Societies, religions, and individuals have various views on the nature of happiness and how to pursue it. According to a USA Today report, "happiest people surround themselves with family and friends, don't care about keeping up with the Joneses next door, lose themselves in daily activities and, most important, forgive easily."
Now the last question is: Are you happier than me?
I know generally speaking people in Europe enjoy more vacation time each year and have short working hours per week. But, there is no free lunch; somebody is paying for this and the society as a whole is paying for this; the tax payers are paying for this. Sooner or later the music will stop.
