In a roundabout fashion but I wouldn't express it quite that way ..
I believe that we grow through adversity & hardship ...that our character develops through these trials & through this experience we can find contentment , not necessarily happiness.
Happiness is not usually a long lasting feeling ....it is influenced by external things which come & go !
On the other hand , contentment comes from within ....is a choice we make & is a sign of character!

No...I think you can be happy without suffering first.
I think the goal is to avoid hardships.

No I don't. Hardships lead to suffering.

Not since they put in the off ramp at Albequerque.
Hapiness is now just a heartbeat away.

I believe that in being challenged, we discover the best and the worst about ourselves... you live you learn basically and by not making the same mistakes twice and learning to cope with failure or death... you become happier...

hardship definately doesnt lead to happiness. happiness cant be "reached" it can only be obtained or achieved.

Yes love is sacrifice and you appreciate what makes you happy after you struggle to maintain it
