Sorry if this comes off pissy. The answers so far are great. I could go on and on about how fleeting happiness is. It's like a cigarette, or a brownie, or an orgasm. It's very briefness is what makes it wonderful. Life can be a real bitch but the few moments of sunshine, where you truly feel ethereal, are worth all the hardship.

Right now? My idea of happiness is having enough money to make next month's rent.
