    Happiness is Just a momentary state of being connected with one's sense of well bring. However, the best way to achieve it is through Meaning. Search for meaning, not happiness.

    This thread reminds me of the quote

    Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be.
    Abraham Lincoln

    and I totally agree
