The U.N.’s World Happiness Report has rated Finland the happiest country in the world for the sixth straight year. Finland responded by saying that happiness is a skill. So, what makes them so very happy and how can we learn to be just as happy as them?
Everyman’s Rights
One thing is Finland’s law called “Everyman’s Rights”, which lets people roam, camp, and forage in nature. There are more than 40 national parks that have trails, rentable cabins and even free cabins. Nature is so important for happiness!

Finland also appears to have the best educational system in the world.
Happy because they are all drunk by 5 p.m.,
They don’t know any better. Being cared for by the government’s cradle to grave policies isn’t living free, it’s free living. Perfect place for the weak to congregate and be cared for. IMHO, happiness is found in the struggle and the journey, not in an equitable result. “A fish in every pot”. Everyone gets a fish for paying ultra high taxes and a light work week that distracts them from how everyone is equally fed, clothed, educated, and unfulfilled. Socialism at its finest.
Truly, how fulfilling can life be with no chance of starvation and struggle in the equation? I guess for some, it may be.
