Is Happiness Actually Fireproof?

Furthermore, we often need help from the outside because we can't do it alone, and that's perfectly okay!

[Bradley Twesten]

Unfortunately, everyone's psyches are fragile. The most robust and happy, hopeful person will still waver under the right circumstances. So not really fireproof, no.

[Rebecca De Figueiredo]

Happiness is such a transient thing: Human beings simply FEEL things too deeply and are not content with how things are; we're always searching for more and are never satisfied. I think we have achieved ultimate happiness when we are content with what we have, and this is when useful books like this one come into play...

[Kelvin Suraj]

I think this is the best way to describe happiness. With happiness nothing can pass through us and yet affect is . Happiness is the building block of hope.

[Colleado Keana Rose]

Certainly! Achieving it is a challenging task, and concentrating solely on our passions may not suffice. However, with ample patience and consistent practice, it can certainly be accomplished.

[Oluwa Tomisin]

Well I think happiness isn't fireproof except you make it one, in fire situations you DELIBERATELY choose to guide your happiness and let nothing pierce through.

Connecting with loved ones serves as a vital pillar of emotional well-being. Meaningful relationships provide a support system that can uplift your spirits during tough times. Social connections contribute to a sense of purpose and belonging, fostering positive emotions and resilience.

[Kaylen Fauz]

Yes, I believe that it has the potential to be Fireproof. Happiness is free and is gotten from content. Once one is content, happiness is achieved.

[Martha Lopez 4]

I can say for sure happiness is fireproof because when one one is happy it's hard for anything to to affect the person deeply. I think this is a very good question.

Unless you're very thick-skinned, have some sort of syndrome, are continually high on substances or are a young child, no one is immune from sadness. It infiltrates, darkens our moods and changes our lives. It's part of being human.

[Ortilia Carmelita]

I hold an optimistic perspective that the human capacity for happiness and fulfillment can be cultivated and reinforced to the point of withstanding many of life's inevitable hardships and sorrows.

[Ortilia Carmelita]

Through practices like meditation, gratitude journaling, investing in community, and living purposely, I believe we can develop resilient inner resources to lean on during periods of turmoil.

[Ortilia Carmelita]

Just as muscles strengthen with consistent training, so too can our ability to find inner peace and joy while facing external stressors.

[Dianë Godwill]

While happiness can be a powerful source of strength, it may not be completely impervious to life's trials. Inevitable difficulties have the potential to test even the most resilient happiness.

[Pablo Josue Mendia]

I do not think that happiness (whether the feeling or human flourishing) is fireproof. However, I do think that if we embrace many of the advices that Dr. Ross provides, we can certainly live a meaningful and enjoyable life. I feel that putting "happiness" on the high-level of "fireproof" could be discouraging for some people. Maybe your journey is way behind, relative to others, but that does not mean that one cannot be presently living a life of meaning and joy.
