Can happiness be profound?All the 2deep4you literature is depressing for some reason
What a dumb, pointless thread.

>>25495598profound happiness is called enlightenment or transcendence
>>25495629Not really>>25495598I don't know. I think the issue might be marketing , that people are attracted to misery. Whatever the inverse of schadenfreude is seems rare, sadly.
>>25495598I think that's just the nature of writing an interesting story. Generally, you could say that a story is about problems and the solutions to them, and having problems doesn't make people happier. And besides, a lot of human life is dealing with sad stuff and issues, so if you write about that, you have a better chance of touching on something Real.

>>25495611This and "im14andthisisdeep" are just lazy anti-intellectual dismissals. "I'm not dumb, it's the work that is pretentious!"That said, Ulysses is the most life-affirming book I have ever read, and it's arguably the deepest one out there.

>>25495626we don’t say ‘congratulations on your birthday’ in english saar
>>25495598It can.However most literature is storytelling in one form or another. Happiness makes for boring stories unless that happiness is hard won and at the very end.
