How do you know if you're really happy, Is total happiness an unachievable goal like nirvana!? I'm happy but always feel could be happier?

Happiness is a state of mind. If you're happy, you wouldn't worry that you could be happier. Our society teaches us to strive for more, to be a better person, to be the best that we can. It makes more sense to keep peace in my heart and follow my good intentions wherever they may lead. But I don't worry about attaining goals. That's not life, that's struggle. I hope I understood your question and my words are sent with peace, not judgment of conflict. Travel lightly.

I believe that happiness can be an individual perception. It could depend on the situation you're in of course. I think if you are happy with yourself it helps you in your life a little better. Sometimes we are not always satisfied with things. That might just be a normal thing for all of us. I think you can achieve a goal of total happiness, why not?
