Is happiness a skill, a grace, or some combination? What has it been viewed as historically?
I could go along with happiness being a skill having blown up what little ive gotten myself because im a miserable bastard I guess. You could throw a billion dollars and the most 10/10 woman in my lap, is it gonna shoot my short term happiness through the roof, duh absolutely. But what about 3 months later(unless you could get me my oneitis or early 00's kate beckinsale maybe), Even then I'd probably fuck it up somehow.
>>16891691Happiness is more of an innate quality some have and others will always lack. Some people go about even in the most austere conditions with a smile on their face and a joke at a ready while others can barely get out of bed in their multimillion dollar mansions.
