Nah pure happiness/content exists.

Think about this. Suffering is caused by wants and desires right? Fulfil those wants and desires and you aquire happiness for a short period of time.

What if you didnt want anything? If you are completely content and have no desires, you can be happy always because you're desires are always fulfilled.

But its hard to get to that state.. many people spend their lives striving for that kind of happiness. Some reach their goal, others don't. Because think about how much suffering is caused when you want to have no wants... thats the tricky part.
