My keys to happiness
I have a great interest in how people find happiness because I have been unhappy most of my life. It took me 40 years and lots of doctors, counselors, medications, and self-help books to figure out how I can be happy; or at least happy enough.
Many of the things I figured out for myself are reflected in these essays:
-kindness to others (Blueprint, Compliment, Praise)
-kindness to self (Chinese Garden, Sleep)
-love and sex (Middle Age)
-physical activity (Fun to be Fit)
And there are many more.
The thing that surprises me most about reading this book is how the questions and answers are so much the same today as they were 50 years ago. Were they the same 500 years ago? 5000 years ago?
