Happiness

At the club's Table Topics contest last week, a quote on happiness was given:

Happiness is not a station you arrive at,but a manner of traveling. Margaret Lee Runbeck

I wonder what does the Bible say about happiness?

I found the answer in Proverbs 3.

Proverbs 3:13-18 CEB

13 Happy are those who find wisdom and those who gain understanding. 
14 Her profit is better than silver, and her gain better than gold. 
15 Her value exceeds pearls; all you desire can’t compare with her. 
16 In her right hand is a long life; in her left are wealth and honor. 
17 Her ways are pleasant; all her paths are peaceful. 
18 She is a tree of life to those who embrace her; those who hold her tight are happy.
