I Am Trying to Find Happiness

I'd like to say something about happiness please. Why is it that everyone assumes people actually know how to be happy? When we are born we don't innately know how to drive a car or how to play lacrosse or how to do differential calculus. We have to be taught how to do those things. Yet nowhere really in our lives are we taught how to be happy. Of course suggesting having lessons in how to be happy... when you say it.... it sounds weird. I accept that. But when you think about it... perhaps it not quite so silly as it sounds. Anyway today... all of you reading this.... please.... pop a smile on your face and a spring in your step and have a fantastic day..!!

driving, lacrosse and calculus and not natural, innate human emotions, happiness itself doesn't have to be learned, the actions it takes to make you feel that innate human emotion is what has to be learned

You might want to re-write that so that we can understand it@RoxClymer

what is not understandable about it?
A) certain advance actions are not natural emotions that a human is born with.
B.- you learn actions that produce certain natural human emotions
IE- you win a lacrosse game you are happy, you loose a lacrosse game you are sad
