Happiness Survey

According to a happiness survey conducted recently by "Woman's Day" & AOL, the following were the results from a variety of questions asked of 12,000 women:

78% said that happiness was a choice.

56% said they hop out of bed in a good mood.

65% said that money cannot buy happiness.

22% said that having great sex for the rest of their lives would make them happiest while
56% said that winning the lottery would do it.

18% said that family was the key to happiness, while 3% said that time alone to themselves was.

67% said that they were happy enough when asked if they were happy, 22% said not very, and 11% said they were blissfully happy.

39% said optimistically, that their happiest days are ahead of them while 27% said that those days were behind them.

Now I will answer this survey (ooh, dare I?).

I do believe that happiness is a choice (some just don't know it).

I don't hop out of bed in a good mood (maybe I could fix that if I could just get enough sleep).

Money cannot buy happiness (but it sure adds to it).

Winning the lottery would make me happy just as great sex would (sorry, but it really is a
toss-up).

Close family ties is very important and makes you feel wonderful, but time alone is another is
just as important (another toss up and time alone is something I usually crave).

I am happy enough and believe that my happiest days are ahead of me.
