You couldn't really have true value in nothing and be happy because happiness itself is putting positive value in something. i'm somewhat of a nihilist because I believe nothing inherently has value. I don't think it's really possible for a living creature to remove all value in anything, no matter how hard we try. The people who do believe in an afterlife don't tend to be any kinder than those who don't. You could say happiness itself stays internal because it doesn't care much about sharing.
