HAPPINESS IS A HIGHLY VOLATILE EMOTION, DEPENDENT UPON HEALTH, WEALTH, AND GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION...
... IT IS A STATE OF MIND...
... IT IS THE STATE OF MIND WHICH WE ALL DESIRE...
... IT IS THE PURPOSE OF LIFE...
... IS FINDING YOUR PURPOSE IN LIFE...
... IT IS AN ILLUSION...
... IS ACCEPTING WHO YOU ARE...
... IS ACCEPTING THE WORLD AND YOUR SITUATION AS IT IS...
... IS FINDING A WAY TO CHANGE THE WORLD, AND DOING IT...
... CAN BE ACHIEVED EVERYWHERE...
... IS AN OPTIMAL GOAL THAT FEW HAVE EVER ATTAINED...
... IS LEMONADE ON A SUNNY DAY...
... RESIDES INSIDE YOU...
... CANNOT LAST...
... IN ITS PUREST FORM, IS EVERLASTING AND COMPLETE...
... LIKE BEAUTY, ITS ESSENCE DEPENDS ON ITS EPHIMERALITY...
