Happiness is a lie sold to us.

We're not meant to be happy. Its a tool intended to push us away from our morals and principles.

That’s your decision. If you accept not being happy then you won’t be.

@travelguy01 right, well happiness is really just dopamine.. When dopamine is released in our brain, we feel a sense of temporary pleasure. Since its tmeporary, its obviously going to be a never ending chase. Which is why many of us are convinced something is wrong with us. Because we're sold we should be feeling like that 24/7.

I think what you're referring to is being content and grateful for what you have and not always craving for more.
