A curious question with a curious "the answer"

"How come is she such a happy person?" a student of my PhD advisor had apparently asked him, after having a few meetings with me about our project. "I gave her the answer, which I now prefer to keep confidential!" my advisor wrote. Such a curious question followed by such a curious statement! "I gave her the answer"! What is the answer?! I hope it was not "Saffron" as my current advisor once speculated, after I told him that we believe eating saffron brings happiness! 

Seriously, "how come am I such a happy person?" Am I?! Assuming that I'm a happy person, one immediate answer would be I am coming from a happy family with a happy witty dad, who has never set aside his humour and hope in the toughest moments of his life, consequently my mom, my brothers, and me have stayed tuned with him too. This might be one answer, but not the all. I make efforts everyday to stay happy. I do not go to work until I manage to cheer myself up somehow; it might be taking a different path to work, having a tranquil walk, dressing up, polishing my nails - anything that makes me feel "I matter". I love writing, and I do it every day. I love doing sports, running, swimming, yoga, and the most adventuruous one I have just discovered, Aikido (which truly deserves a special post on the blog!). In my adventurous well-travelled life, I have had the privilage of gaining the friendship of incredible friends with so much love, passion, and courage; I try to catch up with them often to feel refilled. Happiness is a virtue to me. If I achieve the best of the world but don't feel happy and satisfied, I leave it after I try every possible way to improve the situation but I fail - admittedly I'm quite patient with such solution seeking stages because of being hopeful and prudent. 

I have my sad moments too - easily perceived by a glance at my blog posts. For those emergency moments, I ask for help. The first one that I approach is my angel. She is the most dear intimate friend I have in my life. She knows every thing about me, every thing, even those I might have forgotten myself, from the day I'm born to this very moment. She has incridible wisdom about the world, about humanity. Her positive energetic words stay in my head for good. She is extemely supportive and sympathic, especially in those critical moments I need her most. If I am whom I am, for the big part it is for having her, my sagacious angel, Sophie. 

I wonder now if Sophie would be the answer.
