I relate. For me a fulfilling life incorporates empathy with the less fulfilling lives that have gone before us, and persist around us - and therefor some sense of grief. But it therefor also includes celebration of whatever joy we have - and a purpose in doing what one can to spread that joy, and diminish the sad situations around us. So for fulfillment we get into struggles, which are not always happy ones, but always give us a sense of self-worth, and occasional achievement, to enrich our lives. And that, for me, is happiness.
