Pleasure 'Pleasure' is to be found with matierial possesions, sex, eating good food and fulfillment of desires. The high points in these are only temporary. The feelings of pleasure will last for only a short time and it will fade. Pleasures are found with acts of selfishness or thinking of one's self and are quick and easy to obtain. Happiness 'Happiness' is derived from the so called spiritual aspects of life, doing good for others, putting things into perspective through the development of the act of patience, and being content with things and people as they are.
Happiness is found from non-selfish acts and is cultivated with time and work.
So you see that 'happiness' and 'pleasure' are two differant emotions and come about in quite differant circumstances. The people who are not satisfied in life are the ones trying to fill their life up with 'pleasure' . The ones who have found 'happiness' are the ones that do good in the world and are patient with others. Patience 'Patience' is a value that is easier to obtain than most people think. Most think that this value is brought about with time but this is wrong.
