Features: Troubles seem to have come, as Shakespeare said, "New grievances and old ones all rise in the heart." The author's inner weather often shows as "cloudy with overcast." Happiness seems to have disappeared from life, but the author needs it. Oh, how much one needs happiness! This book introduces the author's reflections on happiness, as well as some stories about finding and chasing happiness, while also excerpting witty and humorous quotes from fiction and non-fiction texts to enrich the theme of "happiness." It is believed that under the benevolent light of God's mercy, happiness is an important component in achieving the perfect unity of life attitude, interpersonal relationships, and lifestyle. Happiness does not favor those who poetically pursue it; it often arrives unexpectedly. Sometimes it is a response to other pursuits and life states, and at other times, it originates from a candid and proper handling of the harsh realities around us.
