Happiness doesn't exist (kind of)

My thanks to [livejournal.com profile] mindways for the pointer to this fine exposition of the heart of Buddhism. While it's by no means the complete be-all and end-all, this nicely summarizes one of the most central tenets. It's very unintuitive to most folks, because it is *so* contradictory to our upbringing, but more and more I've found it to be quite correct...

An interesteing concept that I can get onboard with. So, it can either mean that i shouldn't be moving to Massachusetts because I'm looking for something else 'out there', and I know I can ease my suffering here. Or, it could mean that I'm hoping the move to MA will help ease my unhappiness here. I'm opting for the latter.
