    President Roosevelt said “We don’t have to fear anything in this world, but fear itself”. This is not about sitting back and letting everything take its toll but taking action and acting on it. For example when people say life moves to fast for you to sit on your butt and let it pass, but enjoy life and embrace everything that happens. If you’re poor, that doesn’t mean u can’t make contributions in this world, money doesn’t always solve all the world’s problems whether you are rich or poor. President Roosevelt also said “You don’t have to have money to be happy, happiness comes from achievement”. When one works for something and successes in the long run, that’s when the feeling of happiness is real.…

    One would be that happiness is pleasure and all things we do are for the sake of achieving the feelings that come along with pleasure. Two is that there really is necessary and unnecessary desires that we will encounter in our lives as humans, and is our mission to determine which is which. Happiness isn’t something that you can’t find while being isolated, most likely your happiness will be found in society where other people can help you discover what your happiness is. Lastly is that happiness isn’t just the pursuit of pleasure but to relieve yourself from any type of pain that you or others may suffer from. Perhaps making others smile will pleasure you and fill in the pain that causes you to be unhappy and in the end make you feel…

    In the story “the pursuit of unhappiness” John Stuart Mill he believe that we should not look for happiness and we should do more to make others happy rather than our selfes. I agree and believe we should not look for happiness because we need to live our life not depending on a temporary feeling that is never, ever lasting. i strongly believe if it is true it will come to us without us having to search. it’s good to look our self's, but i believe we should not force happiness upon us if it is only momentary. Even if so the feeling is temporary we should try to give others that spark of joy in them by showing them good or helping them in a positive way. To end my opinion i agree with John Stuarts behalf that we should not search for our happiness and rather so give more than we get.…
