it's not even the instance of success that one's head should be tight about, it's the instance that one is aware of what success is; not to put too fine a point about it...but what is success? is it merely expenditure of energy? or is it based on an goal of infinitesimal things that permeates our reality?

happiness =/= a happy life.
life sucks ass. the only good thing about it is abandoning it for truth.
therefore, truth = ne plus ultra of life.
living life requires you to A: be unhappy, and B: lie to yourself and to those around you about how willing you are to suffer in order to pertain to moments in happiness, when the truth is self-evident.
Interesting. Why lie about your willingness to suffer? Lie how?

A happy life would be not being self aware.

It depends on who you are I guess.

To be oblivious of you're surroundings like a dog for example is a pretty nice life as far as species. Being aware is a gift and a curse.

If you are saying that the willingness to live is a lie, I disagree.
Every living creature in nature shows a willingness to live. Why are we different?

For a solid two years I had an unlimited amount of Diluadid (my addiction) . I'd dose 20+mg per day. I got awesome nods and never went not high. It didn't do a damn thing for me except build my addiction stronger. What makes a happy life happy is a different question

Lol robot
Well being a robot is having exceptionally bad brain health. I think you interpreted me wrong. I mean to say ultimately that all happiness is internally generated.
Though I admit my life is very simple and you may have a very complicated life that makes you happy, so we are at odds.
I am very happy though...
Perhaps I will tack on more activity soon and realise it's a hell of a lot more fun that way. Despite being fun already.
