That's just a silly thing to say. I'm going to go with the assumption that you were being facetious, while I answer the question anyway. Heheh
Happiness is entirely subjective. I am nod sad about anything happening in my life. I am very happy with my marriage and my job. I am never left wanting for entertainment or things that make me smile. I have five loving and happy pets that make my home warm and inviting. I suppose I wish I had more money.
All in all, I'd say I'm pretty sure I'm a happy camper. Is that all a delusion? No. I am happy with my very real circumstances. I may not always be satisfied, but that is another matter entirely. *eats his mac & cheese and curses the economy*
