happiness is one emotion that I experience sometimes, yes. The expectation to be chronically happy is retarded and used to manipulate us into doing things we dont want to do, like addiction.
'the suffering we enact on you will be slightly alleviated if you do what we want you to do'. I am a human being, I experience many emotions and am comfortable with sadness, anxiety, happiness, grief, excitement, hope etc.

happiness may be a carrot on a stick but love is an emotion that can be eternal and ever flowing out of you, its a choice, nobody can sell it to you, you dont need the right gf, the right product, the right house, the right job. Love is radiant and forever
