How to be happy?

[Billy]

Thank you all for your lovely responses. You have all given me much to ponder

More generally, unhappiness is the consequence of a reinforced pattern of mind that distances us from a more authentic nature. The pattern is called upon to interpret perception, as it itself is interpreted experience. The "something is wrong" feeling is where consciousness is not congruent with, and therefore not accepting of, the perception provided by the reflection of the personality in catalyst. Regardless of the cause of the unhappiness, it is always possible to (re)evaluate the terms of acceptance which had been assumed, this potentially changing experience.

Could you maybe give me a practical example of such a pattern, as well as, how one could change it? Thanks zen.
