　　Do you agree or disagree with the statement: Your job has a greater effect on your overall happiness than the social life does.

　　The pursuit of happiness is one of human being's basic rights. Jobs and social lives are two elements that can affect our happiness and people are universally striving for a balance between them. Whether one’s job is more influential on happiness than social life has become a heated issue. In my opinion, jobs outweigh social lives in affecting people's happiness.

　　To begin with, people gain sense of achievement from work, which is closely related to happiness. Apart from rudimentary physical demands like eating and sleeping, people need to search for the meaning of life, and working is the best way to realize this kind of value. It is no denying that the realization of the value of life is the ultimate form of happiness. For example, Steve Jobs, as we all know, is a workaholic without abundant social lives, but from his biography I can feel that his work is the biggest resource of his happiness.
