When I hear people say, “I am happy”. I wonder: Do they really know exactly what the meaning is?
So I started asking them and unfortunately, they don’t have any answers. What I realized is that we just said words and we don’t know what the meaning is.
Being happy is a common expression. Maybe empty. That’s why you can be happy and sad, or you can be happy and content. However, joy is just joy; you don’t have the option to have joy and be sad or content.
