Definition
幸福 (xìngfú) describes deep, lasting contentment in life, family, or relationships — a state of being blessed. It's stronger and more profound than 快乐 (kuàilè 'happy, joyful'), which is about momentary cheer or pleasure. 幸运 (xìngyùn) means 'lucky' (good fortune by chance), not the same as enduring happiness.
