Over the weekend, I watched a few films that have made me think about the quantitative dimension of happiness. This has left me with one fundamental question.
Is happiness a solid value without gradient? In other words, can we only be 25% happy or an almost full 93% unhappy? On the opposite end, is there only 100% happiness and 100% unhappiness and nothing in between?
I think the later is true. It's like an on or off switch with nothing in between. Either you're happy or you're not. Realizing this makes me happy!
