“If
our happiness is dependent on anything that’s transitory, we must always search
for new things to keep us happy.
“For
all of us, there’s another form of happiness that isn’t transitory: it is
instead sustaining and renewing. It’s the happiness we find when we’re aligned
with whatever it is in life that we find personally fulfilling and meaningful.
Although other people, possessions, or thoughts can be part of it they are
never the origin of this deeper form of internal happiness. Internally rooted
happiness simply is.”
