And since he was seeing more and more people who were unhappy for no apparent reason, he was becoming more and more tired, and even a little unhappy himself.

And then he felt very afraid because he wondered whether these unhappy people were contagious.

Happiness, We're tearing our hair out to try to find a definition of it, for heaven's sake. Is it joy? People will tell you that it isn't, that joy is a fleeting emotion, a moment of happiness, which is always welcome, everybody knows what that is, but there again it doesn't last.

快樂，看在老天的份上，我們正抓破頭似的努力尋找合適的定義。喜悅算是快樂嗎？大家會告訴你說：「並非如此！」喜悅只能算是短暫、稍縱即逝的快樂感覺，這總是討喜的，但每個人都知道，那短暫的感覺不會持久。

The basic mistake people make is to think that happiness is the goal; Many people see happiness only in the future.

Happiness is caring about the happiness of those you love. Happiness is feeling useful to others.
