>Conversely, is happiness attainable at all(which ever way you define it)?

Yes, of course. It doesn't always last, but happiness is easily within the grasp of the average man. The tragedy is that so few people take the time to really consider what would make them happy, and so spend lives of quite desperation just waiting for "happiness" to find them, instead of going out there and making it happen.

So happiness is something you "gain" from doing certain actions that you find pleasurable then?

What if you can't get it, or fail? Is your life meaningless then?

Why do you presume that life is worthless without happiness?

Happiness is just one side of the 100 sided die of emotion. Without experiencing one emotion you cant recognize the other. Without sadness how would you appreciate happiness and visa versa.
