Average happiness


Happiness is the thing, which makes our life bright and colourful. Some people want to have a lot of money, some want to become a great artists, but everyone wants to be happy. Dutch sociologist Ruut Veenhoven by his researches found out that people are not equally happy. So what is the level of happiness for an average human being in my home country, Lithuania?


As a shame, Lithuania is on the bottom of the Ruut Veenhoven's list. I think, the 85th place of 95 countries is not a good result, but it is true. That is why Lithuania is the leader in European Union by suicides. I am not good in politics and ecomonics, but I don't think that someone will be happy, when the food and living prices in his country are growing up, and salaries standstill.


Of course, the main thing that makes people feel happy are not money or other worldly goods, but I think, that person could not be completely happy when he is poor and have nothing to eat.


In my opinion, there are still many things to change in Lithuania. Politicians should stop stealing the money from the government and start improving the situation in the country. Citizens should get humanity and try to respect people around them. Then the level of average happiness in the country will increase and people will enjoy living.
