There is something that we know about everyone we meet anywhere in the world, on the street, that is the very mainspring of whatever they do and whatever they put up with. That is that all of us want to be happy. In this, we are all together. How we imagine our happiness, that differs from one another, but it is already a lot that we have all in common, that we want to be happy.
People want many things out of life, but I think, more than anything else does, they want happiness. Aristotle called happiness “the chief good,” the end towards which all other things aim. According to this view, the reason we want a big house or a nice car or a good job is not that these things are intrinsically valuable. It is that we expect them to bring us happiness.
It is wonderful to live longer healthier, to have access to information , education to able to travel, to have freedom it is highly desirable however it is not enough it is just a help condition to experience that translate everything to mind. So now we ask how to nature condition inner for happiness. There are many building we are making why not to build something inside.
Somehow consciously or unconsciously, directly or indirectly, short or long term whatever we do , hope, dream, somehow related to deep form of desire for wellbeing or happiness. One who hangs himself somehow is looking for assassination of suffering because he finds no other way.
It determines every aspect of our life so we better we know what it is. The fact that we did not know is why so often although we seek happiness and turned back to it although we want to avoid the suffering seems we are running towards us and that comes from some confusion most common is happiness is in pleasure. If we look at the characteristic of those pleasure depends upon time, its object, upon the place it is something changes of nature then we feel disgust that is the nature of things. Happiness is a vague word had better let us say wellbeing.
