Your mistaking joy and happiness. Joy is a momentary feeling of good. Infinite joy is impossible and many go down rabbit holes of evil chasing infinite joy. Happiness is a deeper sense of contentment. It doesn't mean you don't feel bad. You can be sad while being happy. You can be angry while being happy. Happiness comes from accepting your circumstances. Accept what you have as enough and you'll find happiness. It doesn't mean giving up on searching for more. It just means accepting yourself.

Happiness isn't as strong of a feeling as joy. Many mistake joy being better but it isn't. Joy is false happiness. Important in making life worth it but not the point of life. It's like eating a really good cupcake. That's joy. Fleeting good. Hugging your girlfriend every night when falling asleep. That's happiness. Through ups and downs, the good and the bad, it's forever
