Well happiness to me can be temporary or permenant depending on what u want. If you want things to go a certain way you'll be happy when they are that way and unhappy when they arent. If you wanted something that u can't really lose like, if u wanted nothing. Not the absense of want, I mean wanting nothing literally than u'll have everlasting bliss. Unless some asshole takes away your nothing and then gives u something. Fuckin asshole.
