My friend Liang Yu is the happiest person I have ever met. In my opinion, she knows the value of happiness and she is contented no matter what happens. She doesn't woe for thinks undone or bad things that happened to her. That's attitude and positive thinking makes her happy. Once, I heard her saying that life is hard and you can be happy if you are happy in your mind. That's something I agree and I have found her to be happy in her mind even from the dreadful experience. Besides, she always smiles and never regrets for the things undone like others and she believes that happiness is inside us. Most importantly, what impresses me most is her love to enjoy the possibility of life and her charismatic character. For the positive and satisfied mentality she possesses, I consider her as the happiest person I have ever known.

    As Americans continued to push further west, the feeling that the Indians that lived in these areas needed to be removed so the land being inhabited by them could be used for agriculture and other profits to the U.S. On page 134, Zinn states that “Gold was discovered in Cherokee territory in Georgia. Thousands of whites invaded, destroyed Indian property staked out claims.” This shows how Americans were only preoccupied on their own wealth, and they were willing to destroy the lives of thousands of Indians to get what they wanted. In effect to this, the U.S government made numerous treaties with the Indians, which gave them land that would always be theirs, and also promised that they would protect them. On page 136, Zinn expresses how the U.S. lied in the statement: “’a permanent home … which shall under the most solemn guarantee of the United States be and remain theirs forever...’ It was another lie.”…

Throughout my life I have encountered several trials that tug on my ability to become happy, robbing just a little ray of sunshine at the end of the tunnel. With some of the situations I have been in, people may say I should be unhappy, but that’s just the opposite.

    Happiness is similar to an acorn. When an acorn is young and blooming, you cannot call it a tree. When man is young and fresh, you cannot call him happy. Happiness is the ultimatum of life. Only at the end, when man has lived his life, when he is successful, he is healthy, he has a strong mind, may one call him happy.…

    Psy 225 Being Happy

    After watching the video, Bhutanese views on happiness make sense. He talks about people being happy from natural happiness-not physical items that create happiness. He also talks about people of different backgrounds or situations or even the same situations have different views on what is happiness. You can have two people in the same lifestyle but one can be happy and one may not. They talk about how you cannot measure happiness based off of what makes other people happy. You have to be able to gain control of your own mind and decide on what is going to make you happy. I feel that gaining control of your mind is meaningful because a lot of people base their happiness off of material things and not the things that matter most like family and being grateful for the things that you do have instead of the things that you don’t. I think that Bhutanese considers the good life as having friends and family and being content with where they are and who they are. They like to be together and have a good time just enjoy others company. They don’t view physical items as happiness. The Bhutanese people would rather be happy than productive which is almost the complete opposite of the American culture.…
