I will be very happy at the time had the pleasure myself useful and can help others. Because I feel this life will be wasted if it is not able to provide benefits to others. I know that life in this world is very short, I want to give the best of myself to the people around me. Nothing is more beautiful than it can make other people smile happily.
Saya akan sangat merasa sangat gembira pada saat diri saya bermanfaat dan dapat membantu orang lain. Karena saya merasa hidup ini akan sia-sia jika tidak dapat memberikan manfaat bagi orang lain.
Saya tahu bahwa hidup di dunia ini sangat singkat,saya ingin memberikan yang terbaik dari diri saya kepada orang-orang dikesitar saya. Tidak ada satupun yang lebih indah selain dapat membuat orang lain tersenyum bahagia.
I do agree with you @dodybireuen
Bahagia itu sederhana, mendapatkan vote dengan pembayaran mahal walaupun hanya mendapatkan 1x vote, vote me and follow me. Thanks
Membahagiakan orang dengan tersenyum
Wise.. :)
Membahgiakan orang lain adalah hal paling indah dalam kehidupan. Dimana kita saling membantu dan saling mendukung apa yang bisa kita perbuat untuk mereka. Dengan hanya sedikit senyuman manis yang di berikan , ada rasa bahagia dalam diri kita, rasa bahagia yang tak dapat di tulis, di rekam, atau pun di catat oleh siapapun. Karena rasa bahagia tersebut seperti angin yang bisa di rasa namun tidak dapat di raba.
Raising others is the most beautiful thing in life. Where we help each other and support each other what we can do for them. With just a little sweet smile that is given, there is a sense of happiness in us, a sense of happiness that can not be written, recorded, or recorded by anyone. Because the sense of happiness is like a wind that can be in taste but can not be groped.
That is the best attitude that we must practice in steemit.
amazingly, you have a very high social sense
Terus melakukan hal-hal yang baik dan bermanfaat untuk orang-orang di sekitar Anda. Tanpa Anda sadari, orang-orang di sekitar Anda akan mengapresiasikan apa yang telah Anda berikan dengan hal-hal yang tidak akan pernah Anda duga. Do all your best !
Helping the person is a noble act, though small, will return.
It's amazing you are my brother ... a very special thing if you have such a thing. You should be sampled by the crowd
Kontribusi baik anda sudah dicicipi banyak orang....
Pencerahan yang sangat bagus untuk diikuti oleh para steemian termasuk saya...
Budha once said: "βThousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.β
sangat membahagiakan punya teman seperti kamu @dodybireuen
Sudah saya vote bos.... Semoga bisa menang.
Ilmu yang bermafaat mari kita berbagi semoga dapat di pergunakan.

Knowing that I am on the path to freedom makes me happy.This is not because i will not be working a 9 to 5 job after my undergrad studies but the thought of seeing my younger siblings not going through the hardship i have been through, makes me excited for that future and it is all because of STEEMIT.
having a wonderfull day with my girlfriend and feel that we are closer then ever :)
Giving to others is important because when we are in that spot of need , we would also wish that someone would help USBβs . My dream is to help the poor in the future . When I grew up in poverty back home I had no food , little clothing and a father who would hide from us . We just needed help to get on our feet again and Iβd never think Iβd be in NYC 16 years later and speaking English . Doing good things for others doesnβt make you better, it shows that humanity still exists . Do things without expecting a return
about this issue that is about the thing that most makes me happy is when I gathered with my family and spent time with my loved ones family. because at the time of the holidays is a time when I was chested on their side and can share the happiness with them that is my family.
of the months we work on and on but on vacation all the brothers are both boys and girls all come home village yard to be together in enjoying the holiday atmosphere in the hometown with beloved family. that's what makes me the happiest for now.
This Good post @good-karma
I like this because I am very happy with my family
Everyone in the world want to happy. but how can we spend a happy life by spread happiness to other.
I am 20 year old
i start working for the humanity and i find happiness in it.
i have donated my blood 4 times in 1 and half year.
I agreed more then 20 people to donated there blood once in a year and they start donation there blood.
If you give money, it means you are giving food but if you are donating blood you are giving life.
recently me and my friend start a program "Wall Of kindness Phase 2 Give warm save life
we have donated more then 2000 packs for of warm shawls , jackets , coats , socks , and other warm things.
Yesterday we visited primary schools and we have donated more then 50 sweaters , 100 warm caps and deliver a motivational lecture to the students.
Conclusion
Do Good Have Good
As you sow shell you reap.
Donate your blood , your blood donation can save someone,s life.
This is lovely! I used to donate my blood as often as I could (every 2 months here), but after traveling to certain parts of the world they don't let me anymore. :'( I agree that it's such an easy thing to do if you meet the requirements and there's a donation bank nearby!
don,t donate your blood after 2 months. donate your blood after 4 months minimum 3 months.
it is really amazing work.
invest only 5 to 10 minutes and saves one or sometime two lives by donating your blood.
At this point of my life, I have to emphatically admit that the thing which makes me truly happy is when my 9 months old daughter is laughing. Why? Because it is the most honest and pure act of happiness I have ever heard in my life :)
Being with my family, my girlfriend, and my close friends. One day they won't be there any longer. I lost my father a little over a year ago, and you learn quickly to cherish the time you have with everyone. There will still be disagreements, and there should be, but you cannot dwell on them. Speak your mind, listen, and move past (if it is something that can be overcome).
As our priorities keep on changing with time and our interests too, so I were to answer this question every 5 hours , they would all be different even they are from the same person. So Right now I am 27 years old and and 3D artist cum graphic designer, I love making abstract art and that makes me ultimated bliss, I remember when I was a kid and when my teacher gave the whole class to do any sum, if I was the first one to solve it in the whole class, at that moment my happiness was at the top. Those moments are not easy to be realized now because we have grown up now and mind has started deluding us, but still there are few moments I enjoy the most
When I am in the company of kids especially little babies smile.
When I make an abstract art.
And since I joined the steemit, this also gives a lot of happiness when any whale upvotes my post.
Giving to others is one of the most important things we can do. Especially this time of the year. Another reason I like Steemit is we can help each other out for providing great content and building relationships.
Very well, Amazing happines.. voted :)
The thing that makes me truly happy is when I see my children being thoughtful, kind and caring to others! Most of the time they act like wild animals! but when it really matters they are angels, and bring smiles to everyone who meets them. Nothing beats the proud happyness of seeing your kids flourish :-)
That is a wonderful feeling, you are so very right:)
Time spent with family, gf, friends - just some moments that will exist forever in your own little brain of yours.
True source of happiness
I have been through a lot of happenings in my life which ended in my brother and me ending up with fear, and i have seen my brother succumbing to ocd and its terrible. He is not alive today. I too have had to deal with being a dementia caretaker for 4 years and it is frustrating. Really.
I can now say that writing on steemit has helped remove the frustration a lot and that makes me really happy.
Wishing all of you a merry christmas
The serotonin 5-hydroxytryptamine 5-HT makes me happy, its one of the main neurotransmitters and concurrently a hormone of happiness:)
But seriously become happy is very simple.
Enjoy the scent of summer, the sunny morning, good music, delicious ice cream,warm rain, your work.
And as soon as you realize this, it becomes so good on the soul:)
Everyone is happy so far as he himself decided to be
Good post, I like your answer as well. Very creative:)
Perfect response!

Living a simple life and staying close to nature gives really happiness, living a simple life means, Less is More, i limit myself to run behind of materialistic things, and i stay close to nature to live organic way of life. Thanks for or sharing great contest.

when my son was born on November 21st 2017. I was touched and mingled with pleasure when I first became a father.
Very Amazing happines sir, I felt it when my son born also :) Nice to hear

What makes you truly happy and why?
I've been participating in your contest since Day 10, but out of those entries none of it win. Maybe just by winning in your contest can make me happy so that I can make my dreams come true. My dream is to buy my first ever car out from Steemit so if I will win just a single contest from you @good-karma I can assure you can make me happy and I will treasure it for the rest of my life because I am counting all my hopes to Steem that someday somehow steem will increase its price and so I can afford buying my very own car out from Steemit.
Good luck! I truly hope you make enough on Steem to be able to do the things you want!
What made me really happy? My introspection leads me to conclude that it is tenderness.
Tender love is such an enveloping feeling that when I experience it my whole being vibrates like a beautiful song, every pore, every cell and every atom is configured in such a way that everything is a sweet ecstasy inside me and my heart melts with love and my soul expands. Pure happiness.
Now that is what produces feelings of tenderness in me: all genuine and kind things: a sweet and tender word, the embrace that envelops the soul, the sweet look and smile of a child, the look of my dogs, " I love you" "spontaneous and sincere.
Yes, everything that inspires in my tenderness, makes me so happy, very happy.
Seeing smile on little children's face give me happiness of the whole world that's the best thing ever :)
Yup I think so, And it work if they are smile :) I felt it when get tired in work and go home wacth my son come with hug to me, Very amazing happines :D
Thats so true, their smile and laughter just melts your heart
Respect is what makes me truly happy. If someone respects me I respect the person equally. It makes me happy to be respected and to give back the respect to others.
The feeling when someone respects you is as much as the feel of love.
My family is making me truly happy I am happy when my daughter achieves success. I'm happy when it's quiet and cozy in my house. I am very happy when I meet with friends, when we are camping with a big noisy company, making barbecue and just talking. I'm happy when my husband puts a little bunch of lilies of the valley on my pillow in the early morning. I think that I know how to be happy, because happiness is not needed much. We must learn to rejoice in every little thing.
Hi @good-karma very well advent, thank you for share it
My time with my family there is make me very happy, Time with the family is a very difficult thing we spend when we get into work activities, Vacation with the family of course very difficult thing to spend, Holidays become one of the alternative so I think let us spend our time with family in the holidays this year
Happy Holiday , Much love from Aceh-Indonesia :)
You are so right. Everyone is so busy, that spending time with family always gets put off by something "more important". Nothing is more important, because once they are gone, you will wish you would have put off that work assignment or whatever kept you away, and spent that time with your loved ones:)
Thank you sir
I think everyone also happy spending time with family now :)
I'm a simple guy so for me its the health and well-being of my family, close friends and our beloved pets (2 cocker spaniels Barkley and Marshall). My moms dog just today started having issues standing and we went to the vet to find that it somehow tore its ACL so I am trying to scrounge up some extra cash as we speak to help her pay for its surgery (which is $3000+ which really sucks). Not quite the Christmas surprise I was looking for, but whatever, we will pull together as a family and get through it like we always do.
I hope that your moms dog will be okay ...Merry Christmas to you and your family :) :) -Kayleigh
Much appreciated, and same to you are yours!
I hope the dog gets well soon. it is awful to have unexpected expenses this time of year.
Being around people that I love makes me truly happy. When you're with the right people you forget about all the problems and issues of the world.
It is impossible to give a concrete answer to this question. Satisfaction and happiness comes at certain times when desires are realized. And desires are very changeable. For example, in the summer I get great pleasure from swimming in the river, in the winter from walking along snow-covered streets.
Although, you can try to combine all the answers into one. I'm happy when my desires are met. Good luck to you and good.
When your little son who still badly pronounces some letters, hugs you and says "Mom, I love you!"
Isn't this happiness for any mother? At such times everything else seems unimportant.
i m a muslim and i truly feel happy when i listen and news and hear that the in muslims countries now condition is better from terrorist bcz only in muslim countries wars and in mostly wars the big part is USA when a war i start mostly amircan weapon compnies are involved in it and all the weapon is used bought from amaircan compnies...it is so sad for all world that here are mostly people muslims non muslims are killed in from those terrorist and it feel me pain so i feel truely happy when all the countries are in peace from this muslim blog specially bcz only war is here
This truly and deep connection with another human being, because I can see me in other, which leeds to feeling of unity and interconnectedness with everything else - state of flow.
What makes me truly happy
When I See the Price of Steem and SBD rise to the MooN
I am always overjoyed and shedding tears of joy
Yes, that too:)
Bucking convention and living my life on my own terms. For me that means traveling, writing and not worrying too much about material things. It can be stressful at times, for sure, but it's worth it :)
My daughter, who is my pet, gives me full happiness. Because it is to see and smile, to know that this small and sweet being loves me without limits, gives the best of himself to keep me happy and has really achieved it.
Not getting angry, like ever really.... Not taking my issues out on others...
Being able to say i found the love of my life. Having 5 great kids i love with all my heart.
Knowing i won't be at this job long ($14.75/hr isn't that great when you hate your job) i get to hopefully go back to school soon.
Making the decision to help my wife to go back to school, in less than 6 months she will be making $1K more a month than i currently do.
Building my credit so we can buy our own house soon. (Before the end of 2019)
Finding a great platform where i can express my interests and get paid for it.... πππβ β β
Meeting great people on Steemit
Lots of things make me happy.....
-Patrick
Being nice to others,
And that doesn't only include my husband, parents and brothers,
Being kind and considerate to dearest nature,
For the benefit of us all, now and in the future!
Makes me happy to succeed in something I truly care about.
Finding peace of mind and sharing it with others in a world full of distractions and stress I feel it the most important step to achieve happiness. You can't be happy while stressed out or while thinking that you could have got a better deal at x shop.
People are naturally drawn to others who have a happy and balanced mind set, so spreading that around is what makes me truly happy.
Seeing my girls happy and watching their improvement day after day !
That's the first thing I thought about when I read the question !
Why ?
I think by nature if u r a parent the most thing would make u happy is seeing ur own children happy and to watch them gain a new info or knowledge and grow every day
What makes me happy and why
I find delight in lots of things especially at Christmas.
I like the smells and sights and sounds of Christmas. It delights me to watch my neighbors fancy new projection christmas lights miss their house a bit and reflect off the trees behind my house. It looks like fairies having a dance party in the trees
But I believe what makes me most happy is big bear hugs from dear friends followed by a nice visit, because our lives get so busy at times that it is nice to sit back and relax with people who love you.
And a nice steemy wallet would make a huge smile come across my face.
Been successful in whatever I put my hands always makes me happy. The reason is because anything I do, i always put a lot of effort and when it comes out successful it shows my effort is not wasted.
Well this is a very interesting question:
that also need an interesting answer:
In life, nothing can give you true happiness than fulfilling a life purpose, and as for me, prior to the above question, what gives me true and sincere happiness is that I am a motivational speaker, I love speaking positive and motivational words to people, and when ever I speak into people's life and they listen to me and also get inspired and motivated by my words, I derived internal joy and happiness within me, and the reasons for my joy is that as that is my life purpose, and fulfilling it is a priority and the most precious thing that can ever happen to me.
THANK YOU
I would be very happy if the internet connection in Indonesia can be tight and I can use it with maximum, kemuadian if Bitcoin prices soar. now everyone is using crypto as an additional income. along with rising bitcoin prices then our income is all increased
When someone tries to make me happy. In that way I can be happier than someone who tries to make me do so.
Thankyou
DAY 22# @GOOD-KARMA here are many things are really happy us and me mean mony enjoyment travilling etc etc but the speciall thing is that to help other poor people and to pray of GOD and the help of poors is really feel me so happily and i get a amaizing relaxation in my mind and feel happy after this otherwise many things which gives us happines but these is big from all those @good-karma... bcz in my country many of people are so poor i m not rich but i try to help some from my small pocket money
well brother it is the best work and thought to help others wish u more success and in ur aim
Great question
What's make me happy, it's depend on time or desires.
Imagine you are far from your family and you meet them after so long, then family makes you happy
Imagine you are in a desert for a long time and searching for water and you got a cup of water, then water makes you happy.
Imagine you are in jail for long time and today you are going out of it, then freedom makes you happy.
Of course there is not only one thing which makes me happy.
So what's make me happy, is "When i get something when i need it most."
Thanks for a great question @good-karma
My daughter. Never known love like it, and she truly makes me a better person
The thing that makes me so happy is giving or helping people out. I just feel a kind of peace and assurance that that kind deed is coming back to benefit me. The smile on such a person's face even makes me happier.
There is so much cruelty, greed and self-centeredness around. An opportunity to be kind is gold!
It makes me happy to see others happy by helping them by any means I could do.
Great new calendar we have to think to help the poors sprcially in new year
What makes me trully happy? When I can look myself in the mirror and be proud. And I am not talking about great achievements - it's not. I am proud of myself when I am just the way I want me to be. What I mean by that:
I grow wiser. I don't make the same mistakes over again, I learn from my experience. I have an idea of myself in 10 years and I am really happy, when I can tell myself in the mirror: "You are on your way". Some of the things I wish to achieve in 10 years may never happen, maybe most of them won't - but I know I am doing it, and doing it right! Nothing else makes me sleep better then this feeling of fulfillment. Ever since I taught myself to worry about things that don't concern me, I have became more productive and resourceful person, then I was couple years back.
That thing makes me really happy about myself. It's a change which started this year and is ongoing process but I feel I am on a right track.
What makes me happy is my family that supported me through my ups and down and never doubted me for a second.
I am truly blessed
Very well support from Amazing family :)
Wish you the best
