That's why I meant, that "It has take me long but I've learnt that joy doesn't depends on happiness, you can laugh at your sadness, etc".
I can't "cause happiness", I can cause joy no matter if I'm sad...
(Well... if you accept your sadness, then it becomes happiness... but that's not this point... that's very tricky and not the same).
How can I laugh when I know I'm down!... those are the most important moments when to laugh!!! lol...
Joy is an attitude not an emotion, so it can be separated from any emotional state, I guess!. I'm not an expert....
"Laugh when you're eyes are burning..." Paul McCartney.
Okey, Joy is an attittude, but you can be afraid of choosing that attitude, or you may think that is not congruent with what you're feeling... like "How the heck I'm gonna laugh or joke with what I'm going trough"
Well, Life is too important to take it seriously.
