Because we choose not to be. We choose not to have a living, right relationship with Christ therefore no peace. We choose to think happiness is being with someone, having something, being somewhere...but we never reach for the perfect love and contentment that is Christ Jesus. If we know Him and live in Him, we can "think the thoughts of God" and be happy. Our choice.

I am happy like 40% of my every day life too! In that 60% I'm like arguing with my husband or cleaning up messes around the house!

Thats easy.
We all want more and more and more AND MORE...
But when we have more, we want even more.
If we cant have any more, we want something else!
How can we be happy when we have these huge voids of wanting things?
I'm guilty, but trying to fix it!
The average fisherman in Thailand is probably happier than the middle and upper class in the US combined..

Earth is not the place of happiness, may God save it for the eternal life.

Don't make things so general...I think many of the people haven't yet learned to live their lives in order to be happy too...
