  Whenever you think you are not happy, think of the Buddha Dhamma; if that didn't help, may try Richard Gere first. Some superstar so famous, so good looking, so man, so rich, so many girls, enjoyed so luxury life, still felt he wasn't particularly happy. So what did he do then? He went to Buddha Dhamma and ever since, he has been a much happier man. Therefore, ask for more Buddha Dhamma, read more suttas, meditate more, go further inwardly within your own mind, not for more money, more girlfriends, more fames, more luxuries and pleasures in life.

  You suffer because you are caught in your views. 
  As soon as you release those views, 
  you are free and you don't suffer anymore

  Walk The Right Path
  
  There is a saying that goes, " Life is like a traveler. " On the path of life, everyone has his or her own path. The Awakening of Faith in the Mahayana ( Mahayana Sraddhoptoda Sastra) explains that " one mind has two gates," one is the "gate of thusness" and the other is the "gate of life and death." They represent the two paths of life, the right path and the wrong path. Only your wisdom can help you decide which path to choose.
  
  ---------------------------------------------------
  
  Do not overlook negative actions 
  merely because they are small; 
  however small a spark may be, 
  it can burn down a haystack as big as a mountain.
  Do not overlook tiny good actions, 
  thinking they are of no benefit; 
  even tiny drops of water 
  in the end will fill a huge vessel.
  
  -----------------------------------------
  
  With courage, we can conquer adversity.
  With magnanimity, we can tolerate unhappy relationships.

  Without suffering, one will not practise letting go. If things are going smoothly , would one seek liberation ? Suffering is a key ingredients in the path of enlightenment.

  “Inner peace is the key: if you
  have inner peace, the external
  problems do not affect your deep
  sense of peace and
  tranquility...without this inner
  peace, no matter how
  comfortable your life is
  materially, you may still be
  worried, disturbed, or unhappy
  because of circumstances.”

  Life is impermanent, our life is in between our breath. The moment we stop breathing, life ends. Cherish every minute and every second in life.
