Happiness - it's when you're completely in the now, and not somewhere else.
Happiness - it's a term that explains itself. Perhaps this is a folk etymology, but "happiness" - it is from the word "now." Happiness - it's when you're completely in the now, and not somewhere else. If we discard the physical pain, our suffering fabricated mind of thoughts about the past and the future. But there will always be enough material to make us miserable, because in the future - death, as in the past - all that made it inevitable.
Unhappiness - "non-seychaste" - a state of mind, states that life is a failure yesterday and tomorrow is unlikely. If you forget it, to get where you are, and, in the words of Nabokov, "know your present moment" - this is happiness that is almost always available.
"Victor Pelevin"
The thought of death - the only thing that can temper our spirit.
