Finally, something besides wine and cheese gets better with age! A new study reveals that people in their 60s and 70s are generally happier than those in their 40s. According to the Stanford Center on Longevity, negative emotions occur less frequently as people age and when they do, the dark feelings don't last as long. Do you agree? Are you happier now than you were when you were younger? Has your definition of happiness changed? What makes you happy? What makes you unhappy?
