Neither. I find happiness anywhere with anyone and anything because my happiness and contentment are part of my soul. The only thing that should have any control over your emotions is yourself. If you seek happiness through external forces then it will all elude you.

True happiness comes from within, not from people or things outside of you. True happiness is there for you to choose at any moment, regardless what you have or who you are with.
Having said that, the companionship of a wonderful person makes me feel much happier than any object ever could.

People because they are able to help you out when you are having a problem and feel sad or unhappy. Things are unable to do that for you. Things make you happy for about a minute.

I would have to say friends. Things might make you happy but only for a while.

Definitely people. Getting things just makes me want something else, and once I get it, I'm not content. If I didn't have my mom, I don't know what I'd do. She's really great. Yup, people make me happier than things. =)

People make me happy - but, I like nice things, too.

Definitely people. I haven't seen a lot of my friends lately and I have to admit, I'm a lot less happier right now than I am when I'm around them!

People and their actions. I'm not big on material things.
