Kierkegaard did not live that much, he was very withdrawn and detached person, he even ran from his finance before the wedding He had a deep understanding of how difficult or even absurd the demands to a happy life is. We are to live trusting and committed in a world that is unpredictable and ever changing.
If we withdraw from life it faints away and looses its meaning if we commit to it we are vulnerable to be hurt.
The angst is there.
