The pursuit of happiness...

We may make a list of pursuits - success, financial freedom, great relationship(s), hot chemistry, popularity/fame etc? ... but do we place the same energy and emphasis on joy, fulfillment, peace? Does fulfilled ambition bring us what we really need and want in the end? Why do we focus so intensely on the external/potentially superficial? Why are we trying so hard to keep up with the Jones'? ... and what should we be more focused on? Viktor E Frankl says "life holds a potential meaning under any conditions, even the most miserable ones".... and so going "deeper" than our goals and ambitions may hold the key to unconditional peace and happiness.

Blessings,
