The truth is simple. Happiness is a pursuit, a work in progress, the journey, often made complex.
Everyday, we're trying to find our way, seeking a better understanding of the meaning of our lives. At times we ache to uncover and discover what is special about ourselves, finding happiness and sense of peace with this along the way.
For some,the key to these desires ring loud and clear, driving what we do and how we do it. And for others, deep seeded needs are buried below the noise of daily life, rarely addressed.
One thing I know for sure is as I navigate the pursuit of my own path to happiness and get curious about the lives of other great people, a few many common themes emerge.
“Happiness is not something you design for the future, it is something you design for the present.”
