The more I think about it, it seems that long-term happiness is something many people spend their lives seeking OR they believe it’s something they used to have and lost.

That makes me wonder if we are truly ever happy? Or if it’s something that is always just out of reach (in the future or in the past).

    Many religious people including myself feel happy. That’s one method.

    Many of us would never consider that a valid, desirable or positive method.

        Not religious, but if it works it works.

        FSVO “works”, YMMV, right?

        Clearly there is joy in faith for some people.

        So you don’t care if people finds joy in deluding themselves. Got it.
