What Does It Take To Make You Happy?


Here is an interesting thing I read today.

Get a grip

Here's another answer to that old question: What does it take to make you happy?

Japanese researchers at Yamanashi Medical University surveyed a group of seniors (average age: 80) and found some interesting patterns.

As explained in the Japanese-language journal Nippon Ronen Igakkai Zasshi, women showed complex patterns of physical and emotional needs that were required to achieve happiness.

By contrast, men considered themselves happy if there were social opportunities, affording a chance to interact with people; if they had hobbies, to occupy their minds and their time; and if they had a strong grip!


However, most of us that read this blog already know what gives us true happiness and joy. The kind that really lasts comes from something much more important than the things above.
