I think love brings happiness. Not every day, of course, but where would we be without it? I don't think failure will crush anyone with a loving family.

Very cool use of this interesting format, Patty! I like the question. It's tricky to understand "true happiness." But truly happy people are just able to delight in all that God gives every day and finds joy not in things but God and people. Good question about "pursuit of it making us sick." Some have gotten very sick pursuing things that aren't happiness.

I've found that most people are about as happy as they want to be. Two people can go through the same trials and tribulations and come away with totally different experiences.
