Happy

Why is being happy so conditional? 
So weighed by so many things?
Why can't people simply be happy?
Because life doesn't create simple entiities.
I smile today because you put it on my face.
I'll cry tommorrow because you'll eventually go way.
So why strive for something that will only
ever be temporary?
