Comment on I'm gonna ask the simplest complex question ever. What is happiness, to you?

Mostly, seeing my family succeed.
I’m not very happy very often, but I watched my son get award after award last week, and was happy. A year ago, my wife finished her Masters’ degree with a 4.0 GPA, and I was happy.
Personally, this morning I went for the first >100km motorcycle ride of the season. Once I was out of traffic and riding through some of the prettiest scenery on the planet, I was happy.

I’m a similar way. I feel a deeper happiness when my family is happy and achieves great things. So usually for external reasons rather than internal?
It’s sort of like how I enjoy giving others gifts or experiences, while not needing much for myself.
