HAPPINESS OR JOY--WHICH IS BETTER?

A person is happy when he/she gets an ice cream cone.
A person experiences joy when, after the cone is accidentally dropped, says, "Oh well! At least my figure is safe".

A person is happy when he/she has a job.
A person experiences joy when, standing in the unemployment line, he/she feels on top of the world.

A person is happy when he/she has great health.
A person experiences joy when they have no limbs and can still say, "Life is good".

A person is happy when he/she gets married.
A person experiences joy when, after a divorce, he/she can say, "But God".

Happiness is conditional, joy is unconditional!

Which do you prefer?
