Guide Questions:
1. What makes you happy? Give one concrete example and explain why.
Ans: Music and food makes me happy. Whenever I eat food or listen to music I always
remember something from the past. For example, I listen to old music like Nobody by
Wonder Girls it always reminds me of childhood memories I usually danced to it when I was
in kindergarten so it makes me laugh every time I remember this song. When we listen to
music associated with a happy memory, the feelings that we get when listening are also
happy

2. Who makes you happy? Give one concrete example and explain why.
Ans: People who always put a smile on me and also my family. When I feel stressed there’s
always a person who makes me happy my family and friends. Every time I go to school
feeling unmotivated, stressed, and not in the mood my friends are always there to make me
laugh they tell funny jokes, stories, and experiences in their life. When I am with them I feel
happy and in a good mood.

3. In your opinion, what constitutes a good life?

Ans: A good life, depending on who you are, has numerous layers. Happiness is subjective; it
differs from person to person. Some may claim to have a happy life because of a complete
family, while others may claim to have a good life because of their ideal career. But a good
life consists of Having a happy family, life itself, having a stable financial status, having
trustworthy friends, and achieving my dream in life. The most important thing is to have a
whole family. It is the most precious gift a child can get. There is no greater love than that of
a parent for their child. Our family is the first and most important people who can teach us
the genuine meaning of love. They could give us the absolute affection we deserve. When
everything is a disaster and no one is on our side, we know we can count on our family. They
are my home, a place where I can do whatever I want. They serve as a haven for me to nest.
Life comes second to me because I would be nothing without my parents. Therefore, having
an amazing family constitutes not just a good life but the best life

4. Will a person be ever contented with what he/she has? Explain your answer.
Ans: For me yes, If your life is full of happiness, and love and have a good relationship with
your family he or she will be contented. You need to be contented in what you have in life
because it brings peace of mind and positivity that can facilitate growth and
self-improvement

5. What's your take regarding the phrase "Happiness is a choice"?

Ans: Yes, I strongly believe happiness is a choice. Nothing can make you happy until you
choose to be happy. You are the only one who can create your happiness.
Many people realize happiness is a choice and it’s up to them to intentionally choose to
bring happiness every single day. If you choose to be the best you can instead of trying to
be better than anyone else, then you are choosing happiness. If you are choosing to focus
and be content with what you have instead of lamenting and feeling sad for what you don’t
have then you are choosing to be happy. If you are choosing a good attitude, taking care of
your physical, mental & emotional energy, and keep smiling more often then you are
choosing to be happy. When you are strong enough to understand, Holding on is being brave
but letting go and moving on is often what makes us stronger and happier, then your choice
is happiness. No one else has the power to make you feel small/ unhappy unless you give
them that power. Never let someone’s opinion become your reality.
