Do you believe we have a moral obligation to act happy, even if we do not feel happy?

Yahoo! It\'s Tuesday Sir [이름]!
Tonight will be the start of our holiday. Hihihihi.

I don\'t know if I will be happy or not.
You already know the reason. Hihihihi.

I hope that you will have a fantastic time with your family.

Awesome composition! We should not depend on others\' opinion in terms of being happy.

Have a great day. Advance happy holiday!

I do agree that we should not afflict the consequences of feeling unhappy on the populace at large.

>> correct

It is possible to feel very bad and sad, and at the same time, smile at work and behave pleasantly, even while one’s heart may be breaking.

However, I do not agree that “acting happy” necessarily makes one happy.

Certainly the act of smiling and behaving pleasantly has a non-trivial effect on brain chemistry.

Although our behavior does have some effect on feelings, ultimately if somebody is deeply unhappy, acting happy does not make the underlying condition of unhappiness different.

>> correct

In general we are not as happy as we decide to be.

>> correct

While it is possible to develop character in extreme suffering, one is not happy watching one’s children die of starvation in the Sudan. 

>> correct

Happiness does not suddenly arrive based on willpower or actions.

>> correct

If one feels happy it seems to arrive while in the process of other things, not based on one’s decision to be happy.
