Where is it really found. Can a person be happy by having a lot of money? Is happiness in raising children? Is it in career achievement? Is it in self-gratification? Is it in Religion? Or is it a combination of one or all of these?

Happiness can be found within oneself. It is being true to oneself and fulfilling ones destiny. It is doing the things in life that brings one close to a higher state of being.
It has nothing to do with money, position, power, or children, per se. If it is in ones calling to be fulfill in this manner, then it would bring that one happiness. Each person must find their own path of happiness in life.
Religion can bring one happiness but it can also bring trouble to the person who does not take the time to learn how they fit into it all.

For me, it is in living life without fear. This means without the illusions of the human contructs of sin and guilt.
It means realizing that this life is but a temporal illusion, given to us by God to enjoy, with the knowlegde that no matter what, we will return to be home with God in the spiritual dimension, when this physical incarnation ends.
It means knowing that the gift of free will comes in the form of the universal law of attraction. That the vibrations (positive or negative) that I put into the universe in the form of my thoughts, beliefs, words and actions, will all come back to me in one way or another, and that in this way, I am the author of my own destiny, the creator of my own individual experiences.
And that together, humanity are the creators of all of our collective world events.

I think it's a combination of things. First of all, know that God loves you...no matter what. That at least gives me the confidence that if I mess up, I can come back from it and that everything I have is a gift.

Happiness comes from being satisfied with yourself. Until you love yourself, you'll never be happy.
Money, children, a decent job, religion...all these things can enhance your life but...

Happiness is a choice and comes from within-as in your attitude. Owning more things isn't it, nor does anyone owe it to you. Share your interests, be interested in others, but mostly - pursue happiness!

Happiness is a state of mind, just like saddness.
This too shall pass...
