Happiness Cannot Be A Personal Attribute

A person can never be happy
By definition, a person is small and limited
Constantly in fear since it sees itself separate from the rest
Till the time a person is in the mind, it can never taste true happiness
But once the mind entertains the possibility that the person is just a limited viewpoint
That the whole is what is constantly witnessing itself
The person and it's limited perspective dissolve just a bit
And happiness shines through the mind for the first time
