"But what is happiness? It's a moment before you need more happiness."
Happiness is like a high that we chase. When I was 25, I was unhappy. But, I was making 150k a year, was very healthy, had good relationships with parents, siblings and friends. I had everything that I needed. I had a good social life and a good job that challenged me intellectually. I was working hard towards my long term goals of climbing the corporate ladder. I had many hobbies that I devoted serious time to. Yet, there was a sense of unhappiness. An "is this all to life" feeling.
I'm 27 now. I still feel like this on some days, but what has made is better is the notion that I can use my skills to help other people improve their lives. I've also learned not to pay too much attention to how you feel/what you're feeling.
