In human life there is and will be suffering. Escaping it won't make you happy. Accepting it and finding a purpose for your suffering can make you happy but it's quite a different kind of happiness that you see in movies.
Yes, I think that the word happy and happiness are wrong words. Acceptance or contentment are better words, but are not as attractive. If you think about permanent acceptance then you can actually see it happening. It's permanent euphoria what's unachievable.
