Define "Happiness".

How does one define happiness?
Its an abstract feeling of well-being, content, satisfaction .....but no...all these words fail to express the real feeling.
so here's a try to illustrate the concept of happiness with a few examples..

1)A mother bathing her baby.
2)A child building sand castles.
3)A doctor who just finished a critical operation and saved a life.
4)An artist whistling on a job well done.
5)A mother watching her son graduate with honours, under all odds.
6)A father watching his daughter 'getting' happily married.
7)A father watching his daughter 'being' happily married.
8)A teacher admiring his students achieve such heights, he never dreamt they would.
9)A boss smiling on a job well done by his protege.
10)A beautiful bride, in presence of all loved ones, about to say, "I do", to the man of her heart and her dreams.

You will find that money, power, possesion play no role in any of the above instances!!
