If you want to know what happiness is, you need to go to the philosophers. Start with the Wikipedia article “Philosophy of Happiness.” Then go to the Stanford Online Encyclopedia of Philosophy, search for “happiness,” and follow through the articles that come up to see what various philosophers have said. Then read the philosophers’ works themselves. By the time you’re done, you’ll probably be dead, whether or not you are happy.
