Is the strive to spread happiness in the world a futile cause?
I thought of a question i asked myself seeing the world and the internet filled with negativity. So, is trying to spread peace and joy futile? Will the world remain as it was, defiant to your tries? What do you think?

Some people don’t want to be happy sometimes.
If no one tries nothing changes. You are part of the solution

no, never. even if one person is made happy by shouting into the void it was worth it

guts never gives up. he never stops striving to be happy despite the trauma and suffering he has endured. neither can we

Just share a Coke with the world. Small steps. :)

Even if you only make one person happy, it feels good to do so.

Live for yourself, your own unique, uninhibited from all outside influences. You will find that spreading happiness must start with yourself.

Smokes and booze makes him happy, though?

Well, most of the time
Happiness goes hand in hand with sadness, without it, happiness loses all meaning and will become stale.

There's alot of negativity in the world, but ultimately that makes those happy moments even more worth it.

Even if you might think it's futile, that small gesture of trying to make someone happy, especially in hard times, might mean more than you might realize to that person.

Maybe not, if doing it with brains.
If 'spreading happiness' is donating money then utterly futile.
"For all the happiness you wish for someone, someone else gets cursed with equal misery". Hope and despair exist in a delicate balance, annihilating one another. In the pursuit of their own happiness, many end up causing suffering and pain to others.
Although there are some exceptions where we can create more than a zero-sum outcome. For instance, when an artist paints a picture and shares their inspiration, the overall happiness increases, or when people share a mutual feeling of support and care.

Imagine a world with no possibility for happiness, none. Do you want to live in that world, it won't make you happy.

Happiness comes from small things, it's enemy is pettiness. A world where pettiness is not encouraged, is one where the goal of happiness is much more doable/sustainable.

Have at it, win.

If you can make one person happy, it's all worth it.
