Life is about very different things for very different people, you don't get a say on what life is about for anyone other than yourself

No it's not.

We all need food, water, and shelter to (wait for it...) SURVIVE.

You can not live off of happiness. It is secondary. Once you have figured out how to survive then and only then do you get a chance at pursuing happiness.

Lol this is why depression, anxiety, and suicide rates are so high. You all think life is about happiness so when you find out that it's not you don't know how to move forward.

You need a significant other, you need children, you need to work, you need to be a productive member of society. Happiness is optional.

I get the feeling you aren't happy. I'm sorry, and I hope you find your happiness.

I'm very happy lol. I learned how to survive and was taught to. Nobody told me life was about happiness.

In my early 30s and retired because I worked hard after HS. Just chillin on my Ranch while typing this.
