Once More: The Finding of Happiness

Yet another book about finding happiness has been released. Such is our human quest. But how many of us really find it?

So what is the key? Well, it goes like this... If you are looking for happiness you might as well forget it. Our consumerist models of happiness simply don't work (What does happen to those multi-millionaire lottery winners?).

Sorry, but happiness is not found by acquiring large amounts of anything (including big-time money).

Now here's a clue: We don’t find happiness by trying to fulfill our desires—we find it when we stop looking for it and start focusing on others, going outside our selves, serving others.

Jesus was right, by letting go, we find; by giving, we receive.

Now you know what to do.
