Happiness could not be discerned if it were a constant. We only recognize and thereby appreciate it when it manifests – as it always does – in moments. Only contentment has a fighting chance of becoming a permanent state of being. Basically it is in the striving for ecstatic moments that we fine tune our minds and sensitize our hearts toward that valiant goal, just as all ideologists find dignity in attempting to bring into full existence their cherished visions.

Cheaters attempt to circumnavigate responsibility via psychotropic drugs, excessive alcohol consumption and promiscuous sexual encounters. Such delusionists may experience a temporary but false joy but not a genuine reorganization of mental paradigms that create true and long-lasting contentment.
