There's nothing wrong with joy (happiness). Obviously within reason to as well.
Romans 14:17 - 17For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit,
Galatians 5:22-23 - “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.”
Mark 10:18 - "Why do you call me good?" Jesus answered. "No one is good--except God alone.
1 Peter 1:15-17 - 15 But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; 16 for it is written: “Be holy, because I am holy.”[a] 17 Since you call on a Father who judges each person’s work impartially, live out your time as foreigners here in reverent fear.

Yes you are right, it's only a problem when we idolize happiness or use happiness as an excuse to do something we shouldn't or to not do something we should.
This is more a reminder that happiness isn't the end all n be all.
