Does the desire for happiness, make it impossible?

Is it possible, that by expecting to be happy in this life, we are indeed setting ourselves up for unhappiness?
Does the need to be happy, comfortable, or whatever you wish to call it, make the reality of such a thing....impossible?

In my opinion, there will never be complete happiness for the thinking mind.
But there can be fullfilment, and acceptance of reality.
