The Beautiful And The Damned Things are sweeter ..

The Beautiful And The Damned Things are sweeter when they're lost. I know--because once I wanted something and got it. It was the only thing I ever wanted badly, Dot, and when I got it it turned to dust in my hand.

I think that that's the whole idea around happiness. The main access to it is by wanting something, and looking forward to having it. The closer the days to you having it, the happier you are. And then, when you finally have it, it's the longer you have it the less happy you become. So then you can just look forward to something else! Or as a old Chinese proverb claims: "Happiness is wanting what you have, not what you want". Just my two cents

@Free_Mind I totally agree its like meeting your idols, you adore them up until the moment when you realise they are less amazing, less beautiful, shorter and just a normal person
