I don't really believe thinking about what would make me happy is very wise. I've done that and pursued it for well over the majority of my adult life. I've been down in the dirt and the slime and the ooze; in that labyrinth with all the creepy crawlies and the nasty things, only to find myself in that position that's both farthest away from exit and with each repeated egress, increasingly farther away from my starting point.
Happiness would result from an excision of awareness.
