Happiness was laying in bed with my sweet boy Sam (doxi) next to me. However, he went to heaven on Christmas Day. He was 20 years old.

Aw, I'm sorry, Shaunac. It's hard to say farewell.{#emotions_dlg.sad}

Thank you. My heart hurts. {#emotions_dlg.sad}

Oh Shaunac, I'm so sorry. I know exactly how you feel. We lost our 16 year old dog, Dudley, on October 13th. And, we lost our 18 year old cat, Daisy, on February 25th, and my heart aches terribly. I am having a hard time getting in bed at night, because she was always right there sleeping against my side.

As far as the OP's question, happiness for me is peace of mind. Unfortunately, that's dependent on so many factors.

Happiness is a relationship with Jesus Christ.

Personal autonomy.

I've lost it twice in my life, and it's everything.

Knowing my family is happy and healthy.

My mom always says that.

Now I understand what she means
