I would say that not ever being happy for over half an hour is definitely a problem to be solved. There is no do over here. Every moment that goes by is another you won’t get, so spending most of them in misery seems idiotic. I’m not saying that we should never be in misery, because some of that comes with every life, but happier people are easier to deal with. “Can do!” attitude beats “This sucks.” attitude, at least if you want to see something positive happen. You have to continuously look for things to be happy about, and other people’s good points. When something bad happens, start digging for that pony in the pile of horseshit.

Or you could just get baked, have few cocktails, do a line, or drop a couple of pills, and feel happy for over half an hour. Really happy. If that’s cheating, then it’s not a game I want to play.
