While some people may use the terms happiness and joy interchangeably, there is a subtle difference between the two. Happiness is often linked to pleasure and may be more fleeting, while joy is often associated with a deeper sense of fulfillment and contentment. Happiness can be a state of mind, often dependent on external factors, while joy is often seen as a more internal and lasting feeling. Ultimately, the distinction between happiness and joy may vary depending on individual perspectives and experiences.
