Are fulfilling lives filled with nothing but happiness?

I always have a little tinge of sadness...of melancholy and seriousness in the mix....

sure I can let it all go and loose it if I want........but it seems to be a little grounding........

can you relate?

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.
