Who stated that happiness is frightening?
To me, it's not. Happiness gives me a reason to put on a smile everyday and make it through six hours of hell.

I disagree.
Why should the best state of mind a person can have be considered frightening?
We cannot expect happiness forever because it would lose its magic.
Happiness and life shall be greatly enjoyed, while it lasts.

If you look at happiness as something that you gain if certain conditions came together then your fear comes from the unstable nature of these conditions not from happiness itself
But if you look at happiness as a state of mind that generate from a deep feeling on contentment of what you have, and who you are then you got nothing to fear

Mainly cause it too different. Something many people truly have never known. It's so foreign. There afraid also that they will fail getting to it. They are comfortable or satisfied where they are at and don't want to try to be different even for there happiness.

"Happiness runs in a circular motion.
Everybody is a boat upon the sea.
Happiness runs in a circular motion.
You can have everything if you let yourself be." [Donovan]
Is that so frightening? Float with it, and let yourself be (happy.)

Cause everyone is shooting for happiness.
If we have the chance to be happy, it means we'll finally fulfill our dreams, get what we wanted. But then we think, what if happiness isn't all it dreamed it to be. What if happiness isn't enough to give meaning to this life. So instead of going out and getting happiness like so many people can, they prefer to live in their dreams.
Cheers
