Our society defines happiness as lack of problems.
In Iraq their problem is to stay alive.
Here a problem could be to wake up late, to have a scratch in the car, to get wet with rain, to feel overwhelmed by heat or catching a cold in the snow.
So by defeinition we always have problems, so by definition it would be impossible to be happy...

But then how do you explain those moments of laugh we have from time to time?

If there is a storm with lightnings and thunders outside we do not need to have storm inside our brain or soul. Storms inside our souls if what makes us unhappy.
