What is it? Is it merely being content with what we have? If that is the case, then how can we be happy if it is in our nature to always want more? Can you say you're happy if there's still something you don't have that you want so so bad?
And how do you know if something is a want or a need? I can tell you right now that I need you, but do I really? I need you, yes, but in what context? To be happy? Or to live?
One can go on living without anyone else, but then what would the point be, if to be happy, he or she needs that someone else?
Maybe happiness is meant to be temporary, ephemeral, short-lived. Maybe happiness is the state of being wherein we feel we could want nothing more. But sooner or later, we find something else to want.

Okay, sorry. I've confused myself and anyone who just read what I wrote above. Haha. Anyway, so much has been happening to me that well, I think my confusion is forgivable. Michelle, we need to talk. And Nanie. And Angeli. And whoever else wants to take part in my chaotic life. I warn you though, you may regret it. Haha. ;)
