"When I was 5 years old, my mom always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down “happy.” They told me I didn’t understand the assignment and I told them they didn’t understand life."

Gosh that's harsh. I have to say though, that English speakers have a deficiency when it comes to the verb "to be". We don't differentiate between a permanent state, and a transient one. So, happiness can never be a permanent state, unlike say your job (as much as it can be these days). Oh well.
