    It means "an attempt to attain happiness".   What constitutes "happiness" is totally up to the person doing the defining.  It means different things to different people.  To some people, a job is a way to attain wealth, which in turn gives the person joy.  For others, pursuing a life of helping people could be a way to attain happiness. 


    As for me, my "Pursuit of Happiness" is simply to be able to take care of my family to the best of my ability.
