Happiness is the problem

Author's name: Pedro Vivar

Life has no meaning. Life only has the meaning you give it. We are led to believe that the meaning of our lives and existence is to be happy, when in fact this is not the case. Happiness is a consequence of life, just as sadness is. You cannot recognize happiness without knowing unhappiness, just as you cannot recognize cold without knowing warmth. The problem is that words like happiness or love are used these days in such a vulgar and empty way that they often make us lose our sight. They also cause a weakening of values ​​in our contemporary society; honesty and principles are disappearing due to this short-term pursuit of pleasure and the lack of meaning in many people's lives.
