Happiness is a state of being. You are happy you become that state of being, happy when you reflect what happiness looks like and others as well as yourself say "You look happy to me." You can decide to be happy and for some that works. For others they need to recognize their own happiness to feel that it is genuine. The truth is that it is always genuine but people need to be what the need to be and how they need to be that.

To me honey, Happiness maybe an emotion, Happiness is not a decision, but Happiness is there for us to find though. When one is unhappy, no matter how hard one's friends try to cheer one up, the outcome will still be unhappy.
When one is happy, one will always be happy under any circumstances though. Through 'Happiness', one will be able to tell on his character and willpower to pull himself together though.
To sum it up, Happiness depends on every individuals though. As long as one doesn't give up, it will be there for the keep though.
PS I may not have been through the hardest test yet, but the film "In Pursuit Of Happyness" inspires me to do anything with conscience to seek happiness though.
Cheers and have a nice week ahead :)

Both. It's a decision in that you define what makes you happy, you set standards or goals that will make you happy, and when you achieve it, you become happy. It's also an emotion in that, sometimes, some things happen in your life that is not your doing or not your control and those things just make you happy, you just feel it. So both.

sometimes it's an emotion and sometimes it's a decision. i try to be happy whenever i have the chance to. so i think that most of the time it's a decision.

Happiness is a choice. It is your decision to be happy or not.

Good question. Since I believe happiness is something you can only bring yourself, then I would have to say it is a decision that only you can make.
Heres a star.

Happiness is originally an emotion but you and only you can decide to be happy.
So I'll say both.
