Feel Good Friday...Happiness

Feel Good Friday…Happiness

“What do you want to be when you grow up?” “Happy”

I mean who wants to be a doctor or a lawyer or an astronaut when you can grow up to be happy? Are you happy? How do you know? Is happiness the absence of sadness, or depression? Or is happiness the filling of the soul with joy and laughter?

Maybe instead of the gross domestic product we should measure the gross domestic happiness? I think that is what they measure in Bhutan. Instead of the arms race we can have the happiness race. Wow, wouldn’t you like to win that race! What if the government was trying to make sure everyone was happy instead of making everyone (rich, poor, the same) what? What is every public policy and every public decision was made in the light of creating happiness for the greatest number of people? Hmmm.

Well here it is…The World Map of Happiness. Go here:
