I think you should be happy with whatever you have.

Only material things, no. I need to keep improving myself to keep happy. I need go beyond the material and achieve my happiness on the spiritual level.

No. It seems to be the sad condition of humans that once they get everything they want, it's not good enough. If I had whatever I needed, not necessarily wanted, but truly needed, I'd be happy. Those that want and want end up with avarice and greed. Shades of "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens.

You will never be happy if you have everything you want, because you will always want something else. There will always be a new thing to want on the horizon. And if there are no more things to want, then you will WANT something new to want.

No. I doubt I'll ever find pure happiness because I'll probably always be wanting something more. That's just the kind of person I am.

Power and control over others. Thats why you see guys like Trump and others still screwing and taking advantage of others. Did you ever notice rich people driving down the highway? They all wear scowls and don't appearhappy at all. They spend all their time worrying about their money.

yes but if you suffer and try hard for having something and then got what you want will give you a great feeling of happiness

the things that you want aren't necessarily the things that you need and will make you happy.. so.. getting everything you want is not the answer.

No, if you are not trying to get something (it may not be a material thing) you will stagnate and become very bored. Right now I am trying to improve my golf game among other things.

first of all my frnd, there is no end of human desire. if there would have been, then there would be no war.
don't u think those war mongers have whatever they can ask for in this god damn world, then why do they want more more and more.
so ur question is irrelevant. i really can't answer it.
