sustained happiness

Hap­pi­ness,
as the Brazil­ian poet Vini­cius de Moraes put it, is
‘like a feath­er fly­ing in the air. It flies light, but not for very long.’
Hap­pi­ness is a hu­man construct,
an ab­stract idea with no equiv­a­lent in ac­tu­al hu­man experience.
Pos­i­tive and neg­a­tive af­fects do re­side in the brain,
but sus­tained hap­pi­ness has no bi­o­log­i­cal basis.
—Rafael Euba, Why Striv­ing for Hap­pi­ness Makes Peo­ple Miserable

 

Hap­pi­ness is a hu­man construct.

Stop try­ing to be happy.

Be con­tent.
