Because of these factors, though, I'm in such a great mood, and I was inspired to do a little research. I wanted to provide you guys with some information on happiness...because when it comes to down it, what is it? 

According to the dictionary, happiness is:
(noun) the quality or state of being happy.

Wow! I never would have guessed! :) Anyways, here's five facts about happiness that may surprise you.

1. Laughing hard 100-200 times
a day equals an intense workout, which can burn up to 500 calories!

2. Because of the beta endorphins released,
exercising at least 3 times a week contributes to ultimate happiness.

upbringings only account for ten percent of happiness.

make up half of one's happiness, or lack there of.

4. Most happy people are those who
are truly passionate about their work,
despite amount of pay or other conditions.

5. People who watch sad movies
tend to lead happier lives.
