“What makes you happy?”

Tofig Bagirov, 18

“Nothing makes me happy in this life. Only my friends made me happy, but I lost them. They died in a car accident. And now it is difficult to feel myself fully happy. In childhood after an earthquake I was sick. I had a few friends but I lost them later. Now books and family makes me happy but only partly.”

Kubra Ismailova, 21

“Playing volleyball makes me happy. I have been playing about nine years and I enjoy playing. Volleyball is both a sport and the future for me. I choose this sport as a profession. I am studying at the Azerbaijan Sports Academy.”

Irada Gasimova, 66.

“For me happiness is the health of my children. The main thing in life is family happiness. I feel myself that I am partly happy. Everybody has problems and everybody is aware of these problems. Resolving these problems can make me happy.”
