Throughout the poems of Ancient Egypt, we got to learn the motives of the Egyptians. They worked and worshiped the many gods in their culture to live a happy, good afterlife. That was their motivation for living; because it made them happy to think about the fact that in the afterlife, they will be born again as gods.
So, my question is this, what makes you happy? What motivates you to study and to fulfill the duties of a highschool student? (Sorry the questions aren't that related to each other but you get my point) Overall, what genuinely makes you happy?

What makes me happy? Well... I guess food does? haha. but really though, i think what makes me happy is when I am able to successfully achieve and do something i previously could not do before. The primary motivation for me to study and do my job as a high school student is probably to better my life in the future, because i need to go to college and yada yada.

The thing that makes me happy,* sigh * ...............that's a tough one. I would probably say my family. I can't live a single day without them and never had. Seeing them makes me happy, because they are the ones who I can rely upon other than friends. Gives me the motivation to move forward and helps me to achieve what i want.

This is a pretty hard question even though its so simple. I guess I'm happy when I can do something that makes other people happy and when I do something that I thought I couldn't do. I like seeing people happy and smiling. I really don't like it when people cry because I start crying too. So I guess that's what makes me genuinely happy.

I am happy when i am free from school works.
I feel happy when i hang out with friends.
-ex ) Talking about nothing really make senses.
Also i feel happy when i realize i am able do some sort of things when others cannot.

hmm hope? cause everything that i do based on a hope no matter if its like a hope that i could be better person, a useful person for people around me. because what i think is, hope is the only reason that i keep going. but the biggest hope of my life is, to be a influential people for my country, to make my parents smile somoday because of what i have achieved, and become a good muslim hehe

Something that makes me happy is when I'm around people that I care about and they laugh or they're genuinely happy. It really makes me forget about my problems and be happy too. Another thing that makes me happy is when I succeed in something. I really like the feeling of achievement if I tried hard at it.

Music makes me happy shopping makes me happy talking with my friends make me happy but what really makes me happy is when I get what I really wanted to get by working for it. Its like a present when I feel like I deserve it.
Thinking about my future and looking around at my colleagues motivates me to study and fulfill my duties as a highschool student. I think right now would be one of the most important time in my life. Depending on how hard I study I would get into a college I want to or not. I guess I'm imagining all these good stuff in college. And when someone asks me what college are you attending, I wouldn't want to say a college no one knows..
Not all of my friends study 24/7. But if I talk to friends who study hard, I feel like I should study like them. I automatically compare them with me and I don't want to be behind.

One of the things that makes me happy is when I get acknowledged for what I can do to other people. That feeling makes me very special and It surely motivates me to work harder to get that feeling once more.

Well, my motivation towards studying and performing all my duties of a high school student is basically to get into college and than obtain a bright future i guess haha. But overall what makes me happy is the time when i achieve inner satisfaction, no matter how or what it is, could be small or big but it always become the reason for my happiness in life.

I'm happy when I do the things that I love. Hobbies, friends, family, and having fun makes me happy, and I'm happy when I struggle for something that I want and I accomplish it. Also, I like to enjoy the little things in life, because I don't think that students my age, or anyone really, take the time to enjoy the small things in life. I guess I'm happy when I think optimistically and appreciate the good things.

Hum... What make me happy ? Well play soccer for me make me happy because when I'm playing I forgot everything (problems) and I just focus in the game, I like spend my time with my friends and family because I know they love me. And I also like hear music and draw because it distract me and make me feel happy and better.
