Every one has his own experience from his life passage. Some of whome might learn and understood the lessons,hence make the most of it,where others didnt learn or perhaps comprehend these lessons!?.In any sense the worest case would be a man or women whom understand the lifefacts so latelly.
ReplyDeleteNevertheless what is the initial most important cause amongst others of happeness.? Is it money who stands as first equally amongst other causes ? what would be the answer for this question if it has been asked to various pepole such as young older wealthy and poor ?
Nowadays and it is the opinion of the writer that money is the power that fuels happeness. In fact it was and still to come the main cause for happiness. However one might argue that some wealthy pepole are not happy dispite their mony.? This argument is true in some sense but in the general course of life it has been said that every rule has its own exception !

ReplyDeleteEvery one has his own experience from his life passage. Some of whome might learn and understood the lessons,hence make the most out of it. Altrentivelly others didnt learn or even though comprehend these lessons!?.In any sense the worest case would be a man or women of whom they understood the life facts so latelly.Now what is the initial most important cause amongst others for happeness.? Moreover what we mean by happiness any way? Is it the money who stands as first equally amongst other causes ? What would be the answer for this question? And does it eventually differ if it has been asked to various pepole such as young,oldely, wealthy and poor ?
To start with generally speeking happiness means having the sense to feel satisfied . Accordingally, one can do whatever he or she whishs to do since they both have the sense of satisfaction. For instance one wishes to buy new luxuray car or build new house or even more invest his money to get more out of it all are possible. In the other hand however a man who lives in mesery caused by poverty will suffer and undertakes its sadness and blues because of unsatisfaction among himselves.
Nowadays and it is the opinion of the writer that money is the power that fuels happeness. In fact it was and still for the time to come the main cause of happiness. However critics might argue that some wealthy pepole are not happy dispite their mony.? This argument is true in some sense but in the general course of life it has been said that every rule has its own exception !

ReplyDeleteeverything has many different chenllage. In reality life, many people think the education background is most important than everything but I think it's not. I know many people study for their jobs so do I. I think maybe it cause the reality life to inflence people what should they do in their feture. so I do my efforts to do everything well and don't give when I face to any chenllage.

Having a successful and happy family is important because it will influence your personality. Also, it will effect your human relationship.
ReplyDeleteI think I have a successful family because my parents always respect us and theirselves. They always support my dreams.Therefore, i will discuss my dicision with them while I'm confuse something.
While I have some questions, I will ask them. They are always glad to give me the answers. So I love my family very much. I think that's a successful family. We will respect and help each other.
Hi every body, sorry I couldn't comment because my computer became crazy !!
ReplyDeleteHana , good evening , I agree with you that we must face our problems!!so if we do that ,we will pass it ,and get new experience! but I'm disagree with you that education is not important in our life !! if anyone doesn't get education , he/she will be unambitious, so that reflects badly on his/her status and thinking !!
Hi Erica
ReplyDeleteI agree with what you are saying.
"Having a successful and happy family is important because it will influence your personality. Also, it will effect your human relationship".But again how your parents approached success ?
Good luck Erica
To Erica
ReplyDeleteI agree about your answer, you said you have a sucessful parents and they always support you when you are in your life. I think many family always give children their encourage and suppots.
To Salah
ReplyDeleteI think modern people have a concept. They think I have money also have happnees. I think it wrong... a person who have money not also have hapenees. right? In the modern, people always to judge someone who has money or not and then to think he / she is a good guy.
I think that meaning of 'happy life' is different for everybody. As for me, I can't understand what means 'happy life', I understand 'happy moments'. Maybe more happy moments means more happy life.
ReplyDeleteCauses of happy moments could be so different. Meeting with your friend, your love, success in something cause happy moments. And I could be happy just laying on the floor and doing nothing)
But if talking about happy life I think the base is being healthy, have happyloved parents, have somebody to talk and spend time. Also - making progress. Reading books, learn something, interesting in something, doing sport - for me it causes little happiness
But all learned in comparison. I was friend with boy in army and he told me many thing about happiness. He said, 'You can't imagine how it great sometimes to do what you want to do, to go where you want.', and he was admire of very little things for us like weather or just talking with girl)
I think that happiness is very relative concept and causes of it very different for all of us :\
That's a very interesting and challenge topic, but I don't think I'm able to express myself well in a so deep argument in a language that's not my first. By the way, this is the result:
ReplyDeleteAn happy life is what every person tries to achieve during his whole life, but what is an happy life? I think it's really tricky to describe objectively what an happy life is, because what we need and seek during our lives it's very different for each other and your happy life would be probably different between the one of your friends. Personally, I believe that we can reach a joyous life through the aponia and the ataraxia. I'll explain better, but in these two words there are both the causes and the effects. Like the Epicureans thought the the ultimate goal of life is happiness, I think that there's no real effects for an happy life, but it itself is an effect of our behavior. So, what are the causes or better, how can we obtain this status of joy? To gain this status we should free ourself from the pain and the worries, only in this way I think we can be really happy with our life.
You can find that blogpost at http://matrixarray.blogspot.com/2011/07/happy-life.html with a picture.
I have to question:
ReplyDeleteThe first to Saleh: I don't get what are for you the causes of an happy life, could you explain in an other way?
The second question is to Anna: which are the effects of an happy life for you?
Hello =)
ReplyDeleteHow's your weekend?
I chose No.1.
There are many causes and effects for getting "happy" or "joyous", and they are various because people have different taste how to feel grateful, so I can't say it exactly.
I'm going tell you my thought. Having your own goal or aim is the most important cause because if you had them, you would try to achieve them. This process cause happiness, and it makes us encourage. When you gain them, you praise you, become to like you more and pride yourself.
I think the most happy feeling is you have confidence of you or your experience, and you believe yourself more than anyone.
In conclusion, that you experience to achieve your goal and get anything you need as much as you can brings you happiness.
Thank you =)
Yuuki
Hi, Saleh.
ReplyDeleteI know what you meant and agree with you.
Actually, I think we have two type of happiness. One is money; physical happiness, and another is feeling; psychological happiness. Nobody knows which is more happy. People have each own thought or feeling and want to get satisfied life for them.
For example, if you are given choice which is whether you have too much money, so you can buy anything what you want, but you don't have any relationship or experience with person, or you don't have any money to live, but you have many friends, you can enjoy with them, which situation will you choose?
I guess it's difficult to decide for many people.
How do you think, Saleh?
Thank you,
Yuuki
Hi, Hannah=)
ReplyDeleteI could understand what you said, and I also think so, but education is important even if it's not the most, I think because we learn knowledge or skill to work from education, so if you didn't take education at all, I assume you will do hard work more than anyone.
Thank you
Yuuki
Hi Daniel
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip ! If we put it in this way . A country X have poor pepole and Y have rich people whay ?
Some pepole afford happiness and others not !?
In my country say a prince for instant unless he is sick the rest of his life is full with happiness ?
why? because he have a castel to live in , plenty of money , a private airplane what else a lot of servants and stuges. In top of that these sort of creatures get marriged with the most beutiful saudi girls... here you might say the cause is to be a prince and the effects would be all these features of happiness ,, but again to be a prince means to be a wealthy powerful man and to get power is to get money intially.
Hi Yunna

""How do you think, Saleh?""
Thanks Yunna for backup and support.
As I told daniel a prince could have money as well as the most charming saudi girl to marry with. I would like to thank you Yun for drawing my attention to this side bar question? is happiness means to be happy in all sides of your life or perhaps you might accept a bargin that is to say be happy in one side and sad in another!
Thanks Anna for bringing our attention to this intitial start: A need for defenition since all what we are discussing so far is not bounded with a definite meaning for happiness
ReplyDeletein an analogy form "relative"
God Loke
Ok, I think I understand your point of view Saleh, it's like happiness comes mainly from money ...
ReplyDeleteHanna
ReplyDeleteI agree with you not all who have money is good guys ! I have said that your argument has some sense and bases but from what I learned so far that every rule has it's own exception.We have been educated from our old fathers and grandfather that life is all about money and how much you have of boys and girls !? That is to say Money + How many familiy members you have.
I think this model has proven to work sucessfuly through the years.
Daniele
ReplyDeleteIt's very difficult for me to tell about effects... Effects are feelings. It's like to feel a flavor of life. Happiness changes your feelings, emotions in positive way. Maybe.
But happiness have relaxive effect and as a result in contrast with this feeling something negative make me feel miserable.
Sorry me for not good desсription.
I agree with you that it's very hard to tell all your thoughts about this theme not in first language. So many thougths, so little words.
To Erica
I admire your family. Good that you said about family's effect on human relationships. It's very hard for people that haven't got family (or have unhappy family) to connect in good way with other people. So lucky you with your parents :)
Hi everyone :D
ReplyDeleteI chose 2. (What are some of the causes and/or effects of being a successful student?) In my opinion, the big cause of being a successful student is having good time management. I think successful students are not just study hard worker. Successful students must dedicate any things, such as studying and playing. I mean, true successful students strike a good balance between studying and playing. Therefore, they probably have goot time management. Might be they have note for time schedule or they just think about time schedule in their mind. Time management is really helpful for what should you do. I think they followed time management and dedicated studying and playing. If you could follow it, you could satisfy your school life. In addition, I think the other causes are that successful students must know how to learn, study, take notes, and read text books effectively. Thank you.

ReplyDeleteHi, Erica :)
ReplyDeleteYou are in good family :D I agree that you write "having happy family will effect your human relationship." I think, if people have happy family, they can be kind to any people because that people know how to love and how to be happy :D
Yuna
Hi, Yuuki :)
ReplyDeleteI always like your writing. Don't you think Japanese people need more confidence? I felt that Japanese people haven't confidence as mush as other people have. I need more confidence too :D haha
Also, I need my goal! I have a goal, but it is a near the future. I'm looking for my goal for after university school.
Yuna
Hi everybody,
ReplyDeleteI believe that there are many causes which make us have a successful and happy family life. First of all, respecting and appreciation among family’s members. I mean that we must respect each other and don’t do anything makes others members upset, and if we do that we should apologize for our mistake. Next, we must forget others’ mistakes to keep our life calm and quiet. It’s necessary to make some sacrifices in this life, and to deal others as we want them to deal us. In addition, we should encourage others members of family all the time to make them motivated members, so that keep them successful wherever. Also, to be a happy family we should plan to our future correctly in order to expect any problem we may have, so that keep us in the best situation, and supply us with a correct solution. It’s clear now that the effects of all those causes are a happy, great, wonderful, and a unique family life.
Hi Yuna , I agree with you that a good student should have a good time management , such as time schedule , so that keeps his time in punctuality, and breaks his/her routine. In addition, determining time for playing increases the chance of absorption.
ReplyDeletethanks
Hi Yuuki,
ReplyDeleteI agree with you that we must be confident about our selves, and be proud of our good goals, but we must remember that there is a hair which changes confidence to arrogance.
thanks
Hi, Nada :)
ReplyDeleteI consent your opinion that respecting each other is necessary to be happy family. If all family respect each other, each person can feel happy. Also, their behavior must be good. Respecting is really good thing to be happy family :D I like your opinion. I should more respect my family! haha
