"If
all the insects were to disappear from the earth, within 50 years all
life on earth would end, but if human beings were to disappear from the
earth, within 50 years all forms of life would flourish."
Happiness is a way of acknowledging your inherent hopelessness in the face of death. It is the first gasp of air you breath in once you have come out of the depths of despair. Conscious of the inevitable existence in a physical universe and the dreary wait that it entails, and yet without any deliberate motive to end it, you simply don't despair. Death inflicts happiness.
