I have a good life why am I not happy?

I have asked myself the same question, and I know people who ask themselves this question. I can't tell you why, but I can point you in the right direction. Don't look outside of yourself for happiness. You won't find it there. You will only find true happiness inside. We often interact with things which conjure a sense of happiness. But! That happiness did not come from those things. No, that happiness came from inside of you. It was only coaxed out by something which you enjoyed. But those things go away, and then we are left without happiness — or so it feels. You must grow your happiness, tend to it like a garden. Do things that make you happy, yes, but do not rely on those things for happiness. Sit silently and see what comes. Stay determined in your inner search, and you will find it. Peace :-)
