    To me, music is happiness. Whether it’s strumming chords on a guitar, plucking notes on a ukulele,listening to my favorite songs, or singing in harmony with other dedicated musicians, it somehow always lifts my spirits.

    Happiness is at a concert and it's the moment right before your favorite band comes out. It's the pure adrenaline you feel and the euphoric feeling, and when you are standing there singing with other strangers that is true happiness.

    Happiness is a relaxing on the beach with friends and family to hang out with all day.

    Happiness is...laughing, going to the beach, friends, family, movies, a free day of doing nothing, pets, sleep, music and food.

    In my opinion happiness is when your having a great time with family. I like golf and I go golfing with my dad. When I have a good drive or a decent distance with an iron it builds my confidence and brings me into a good mood.

    Happiness is coming off the pitch with victory grasped in your hands and knowing that every mile, every drill and every rep has paid off.

    To me, happiness is a sunny day spent skiing under a clear blue sky, with fresh powder beneath me, then regaining the feeling in my legs while I sit by the fire taking off my ski boots in a warm, cozy lodge.

    I think Happiness to me is tuning everything and everyone around me and just having a zen moment, listening to music at a high enough volume to get serious future ear damage.

    I think happiness is just doing doing what makes you happy and not caring what other people think.

    What brings happiness to me is when I get to play my guitar and go to visit with other family members that I don't get to see a lot even if it is for a short time
