Opening · a definition
Happiness is an inner sense of joy, satisfaction and love. Therefore, an inner feeling comes from one's heart.
Body · continuous prose
It is said that you can fool everyone but not your ownself. This is because when one tries to fool oneself, one loses one's own heart and one cannot be happy in such a situation.
For eg. when one believes in not to tell lies, and one keeps on telling lies and still purport as being truthful, one can't be happy inside.
Therefore, it is said that 'happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony'.
In the present world, this has become even more important because most often people deal their beliefs for some material gains and hence do and say what they don't really believe in.
eg. a civil servant believes in 'service principle' but he succumbs to some political pressure and does what doesn't serve the people. Such a civil servant can't be really happy.

An epitome of this saying is Gandhiji. He believed in non-violence and Satyagraha, said it, and also practised it (This made him happy from within.)
