In pursuit of happiness.
1. Modern studies of happiness have found that happy people are energetic, decisive, creative, social, trusting, loving, and responsive. 2. Elements that can affect happiness include a philosophical view of life, use of laughter and humor, ability to relate to others, problem-solving skills, meaningful and leisure activities, positive environment, and a well-balanced life-style. 3. Culture, affluence, age, and gender are surprisingly weak links to happiness.
