Happiness is something that tends to pass us by after briefly having met. It would be odd if something was not wrong. Perfection is thought to be equal to happiness. We tend to talk about happiness, look for it, pursue it, compare and prize. Is my happiness same as yours? It is momentary as we are bound to our emotions and guided by them. It is therefore a bit misguiding to search for ultimate happiness for example through wealth and possession, because it is a state of mind which can be got closer to by learning to know first oneself and then others. Knowledge of what is purpose and meaning of life brings happiness, sure. Knowledge of meaningless and purposelessness brings despair. Everything has its purpose we must think. We have difficulty in accepting insignificance, smallness and fragility of ours. In human perspective the scale is important. How well my meaning is appreciated by others and is my meaning meaningful for other people. Do I matter? One is always in relation to others. For me happiness is my relation to myself first, my relation to my insignificance.

Insignificance is an interesting term. Insignificant how and what is the insignificant? It has to do with meaning of an individual, purpose of that individual, individual in relation to other individuals, insignificant ones in mass of insignificance. According to this theory life has no meaning other than what one makes of it. Idea of nothingness which is all. It is senseless and has no logic.
