Agree.
In the last few years I've tried to shift from seeking happiness to seeking meaningfulness as the first order pursuit.
Happiness is like a red herring for meaning, or it's a side effect of a meaningful activity. Or it's something you seek when you experience a dearth of meaning.. not sure. But it's certainly just one or a narrow set of experiences that make up being human.
