"Happiness" is a sham. It doesn't exist. It is as factual as the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Chase it all you like, you'll never find it if it itself is the goal. Happiness is simply a temporal byproduct of success. The parameters of success are to be determined by the individual. It lingers but is ultimately fleeting. You may flirt with it at times, but soon find yourself regretting decisions and forming new paths hoping to take you elsewhere.
Happiness should be a non-factor in life. When you place all your hopes for being happy into one project, person, or place, it will never work. Place it in yourself. Make yourself a better person. Achieve the goals you set out for. Benefit those around you. Maybe then happiness will be forgotten.

Can you elaborate on that?![]()
Does this thingy that is just waiting to be "snatched away" have any say in the matter?
