Happiness

Very general (and kind of random question) but I as wondering what you guys have to say:

Do you think that happiness, as a general state of being, is something that one should have to work towards, or do you think that it is a right that everybody has and that no matter what stage of life you're at, you should always be happy? Basically, is happiness something you must earn or is it something that each and every one of us should experience all the time? Have you ever gone through long periods of being unhappy with your life only because you knew that eventually things would be better? (and I'm not talking about going to school).

Discuss.

You should always have the right to be happy... Not that everyone always is...

Well barring any events that would temporarily lead you to feel otherwise, like the death of a loved one, etc...

Happiness is not a right. It is a reward.

lots of people don't really want to be happy. they may say they do, but they thrive on drama and misery thanks to their own personal issues and insecurities. they wouldn't know what to do if they actually were happy.

Well that's the kind of response I'm looking for. I'd be interested in knowing why you feel this way, if you have the time to elaborate.

People often confuse entitlements (rights), privileges, and rewards.

You are as happy as you make up your mind to be.

Re: Happiness

If it's an entitlement, how do you enforce your claim?

I also believe that the pursuit of happiness is the source of all unhappiness.

Here is some food for thought: People spend a lifetime searching for happiness, looking for peace.. They chase idle dreams, addictions, religions, even other people.. hoping to fill the emptiness that plagues them...The irony is the only place they ever needed to search was within.
