“Happiness never lays its finger on its pulse”

Simplified Meaning:
Happiness can't be measured or pinpointed exactly. Imagine trying to count every laugh or smile you have in a day; it's impossible. Happiness is more about moments when you feel good without thinking about it. For example, when you're playing with a pet or laughing with friends, you don’t stop to say, "I'm happy right now." You just are. To apply this to your life, focus on enjoying activities and relationships instead of constantly checking how happy you feel. By doing what you love and being with people you care about, happiness will naturally come without you needing to look for it.
