Answer

"Hapiness is not everlasting. " But this sentence can also be said as:

Hapiness don't last.
Hapiness is temporary.

Answer

"Happiness" is used here to signify the general feeling of being happy. It is not a single thing to be using 'a' and it is not a very specific thing to be using 'the'. So it has to be used as :

"Happiness is not everlasting"

Answer

"Happiness is not everlasting" is correct. You do not need to use "a" or "the."
