Yeah, that makes sense that pleasure, passion & purpose have varying longevity degrees of happiness.

Pleasure seems to be spontanious & sometimes future consequences are not considered. Yet, it's fun!
Passion - is when a pursuit is meaningful & exciting to us, we've invested something based on hopes.
Purpose - is when something is not only meaningful & exciting to us, but we have a deeper sense of commitment - so that even if our hopes are disappointed, we still find purpose.
