Rika's words hit deep. What's the point of obtaining happiness if it won't last forever? I'd say it's not a matter of obtaining happiness. Because happiness is not meant to be found outside, but within ourselves. It's up to us to be happy. Not saying we have to force ourselves to smile, but it's honestly more of a mindset to be happy rather than something to look for. Happiness is not meant to be gained, rather it is meant to be developed.
Buuuut....maybe contentment is good enough. Not happiness. That way, it wouldn't feel forced.
