First off, let me say that this is an awesome topic. I may be gushing a bit, but just seeing topic like this makes me happy.

 

What's happiness to me? A primal feeling and yet words just don't seem to do it justice. It's something much easier to picture than it is to explain. Just thinking about the word brings back some of my fondest memories. It's the ultimate feel-good feeling.Yeah my fondest memories rise from the depths of my mind where they lied forgotten. It feels almost as if I'm reliving them a bit; I can close my eyes and there I am as if not a moment had gone by.

 

If I think about what makes me happy, the first things that come to mind are my hobbies like playing the sax and reading my favorite book -- the obvious things-- but then there are others such as my family and friends -- the people who really light up my life. They don't even have to be with me; they are thousands of miles away and we probably don't talk as much as we should, but it feels like they're still here, just right next door. Yes, even the one that were lost; I still remember the good times we shared while we were still friends and while they were still alive, though, admittedly, those memories are a bit more melancholic.

 

I can't say that it represents anything in particular. Just like I said before, it's really hard for me to put into words and at the same time it's unmistakable, it really is.
