A fun-filled, pain-free lifestyle equaling happiness actually reduces their chances of ever obtaining real happiness. As a result,many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true happiness.And the real happiness always contains some pain .In the other hand, true happiness has nothing to do with fun. All those who always have so much fun actually may not be happy at all.
I have a bitter experience. When I was a child, I lived a poor life,and I had a happy and meaningful life in my childhood. And my parents were always respecting each other. And now we have some money,and our life has improved a lot. To tell the truth, it is a good thing. Unfortunately,My father always goes out and takes part in the gambling activities. And my mother sometimes quarrels with my father. I am extremely unhappy about it. I think money doesn't equal happiness. And pain-free lifestyle also doesn't equal happiness. The real happiness is that everyone loves each other, and does everything useful for our society. Most of my classmates support me. But some of them think money is everything. In my opinion,we can't do things without money. But money can't take the place of everything,such as your life,your time and your happiness.
