Why do we obsess over happiness so much? I mean it's a state of mind - comes and goes - why does it have to be permanent?
@societal it's all chemistry dude.
@Vishsai - True. There is no point. All we know and do is based on chemical and physical mechanisms in the body.

@societal If people could get the same chemical produced during happiness they wouldn't mind being sad.

Emotions are all in some way just another set of names of chemicals produced in our body.

@Vishsai - yes, and it's all based on limbic resonance.
