Isn't happiness something that is bound to certain conditions?
according to etymology online, its original meaning was "good fortune".
you are happy if you have good fortune.
whereas joy is an inner state that does not require any prerequisites.
That is how I see it.
And for whatever reason, John Lennon sang "Happiness is a warm gun"
(yeah, of course, now I get it!!! conditional again!!! )
