What is happiness?

I always thought that, in able to be happy I needed someone in my life, someone being a guy, a boyfriend. Maybe being happy is more than that,
maybe being happy is the excitement you get when you find money on the ground, maybe happiness comes from a kids smile when your having a bad day, or the sound a pop can makes when you open it, or that special pen that makes your writing feel just perfect. I think in order to be happy you have to love yourself, love others, make room for mistakes and just the little things.
Take nothing for granted and enjoy the time we have on this earth.
