Opinion
Are Israelis happy or just satisfied with life? - opinion
Israel is near the top of the world in one aspect of happiness: perceived life satisfaction or well-being. Our emotional happiness is healthy but has room to improve.
CELEBRATIONS TAKE place at the Western Wall marking Jerusalem Day, last May. Israel scored high because our dedication to Zionism or religious beliefs makes life here meaningful and satisfying.
