What makes you happy?
The answer im pretty sure its not the same one for everyone.
Maybe being with your friends or family is what makes you happy or going out, shopping, sleeping, working out, eating, whatever it is that makes you happy thats what you should do.
There are four levels of happiness:
Level 1- Laetus- it comes from material objects
This is when you are happy because you got a new pair of jeans or a new phone, this kind of happiness is short lived doesn't last long.
Level 2- Felix- this is ego gratification, comparing and when you are better than others.
This kind is when you are number 1 or the best in school or work being the best is what brings you happiness this is good but could lead to being very harmful to others around you and yourself. its good to win or get a new promotion because you have been doing an excellent work, but could lead to pushing everyone around you away because you start believing you are better than everyone else, could make others feel worthless, and could be harmful for you because in case you fail at something this would lead to frustration and feeling not worthy, and not having any friends because of your ego mentality.
Level 3- Beatitudo- when you do something for others makes you feel good.
When you do something for someone else it brings you joy to see someone else happy because of that you did. Focusing on others can be so rewarding and brings a more lasting feeling than the other two, it can also help bring people together and the beginning of new friendships.
Level 4- Sublime Beatitudo- perfect happiness
it involves perfection and finding fulfillment, this one has to do more with religion and spiritual aspects. Finding the perfect happiness is hard so almost impossible naturally and thats why its describe with having to do with religion and kind of connection with the universe.
