search for what happiness consists of.
You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.
: o ) Albert Camus
So the question is have you been searching for happiness, do you even know what it looks like?
Read a quote that bitterness is seeing happiness through another person's eyes. In other words if you don't have happiness in your life your miserable to see another person who is happy. Do you know of anyone like that? Someone at work? Someone at school? How sad to know that your happiness, that is to say your happy could drive another person to misery.
