The answer is: C. The. right to be happy in life .

The Declaration of Independence, written primarily by Thomas Jefferson in 1776 to leave Britain's unfair rule, claims that people possess the "inalienable right" to pursue what makes them happy. These rights are natural and guaranteed, and cannot be taken away from people.
