Entry 2 Draft 2
One of my sources stated that happiness comes from family, and I think that is completely and totally true. I have realized over the past years that what I thought made me happy and unhappy were completely off. It is not until pretty recently that I realized what realize does bring happiness, at least for me in my life. Through whatever you are going through, the good times and the horrible times, family is always there for you. It doesn't even have to be blood related family, but your family in general, the people that you love. When you lose family it is the most devastating thing that could ever happen. Family always has your back and they are always the people you go to when you are struggling. Sometimes you don't know what you have until it is gone. This is why I believe that above all thing family is most important and they are what will truly bring you happiness.
Entry 1 Draft 2
My line of inquiry was rooted from the general idea of what makes people happy. I chose to do this because I for one thought that it was very interesting but also it was just something that I kept coming back to over and over again when outlining my ideas for the question I was going to do. I think that people have a hard time trying to figure what really makes them happy, or what happiness means in general. A lot of people out there think that they are happy, when they are really not. With that said, there are those who have all they really need to be happy, those who are coveted by others, and yet they do not realize it and therefore are also not happy. These are just some of the ideas and concepts that I was thinking about when I chose my question. I think that if more people could understand what happiness truly is and what really makes them happy, the population in general would just be a better place.

Entry 4 Draft 1
I have learned so far that there is a very wide variety of explanations and opinions on what brings us happiness. Anywhere from employment to small things that when we fullfill them we are satisfied. There are just so many different ways to look at it.
Entry 3 Draft 1
I don't really have an opposition with anything except for what I said in my previous post and that was when it was said that in order to eliminate unhappiness you must eliminate desire. I really don't know if I agree with this statement. If we have no desire then what do we have to hope for?

Entry 2 Draft 1
I agreed with the fact that some sources said that happiness came from family. I completely agree with that. It is also the fulfillment of things that you want to happen. I am not sure if I agree or not with the source that said in order to eliminate happiness in our lives we have to eliminate desire first..
Entry 1 Draft 1
Since these are just ideas I guess I will just say something brief. I stumbled upon my inquiry question because I just thought it would be something very interesting to reserach. It just came up randomly I don't even know how honestly. My previous ideas had nothing to do with happiness. It is very interesting researching about this topic I really enjoy it.
