Re: Happiness or Meaning
Sun, April 22, 2007 - 10:57 AMwill happiness be anything more than fleeting unless it is founded securely in meaning? But I think conversely, it is possible to have meaning, and not happiness, but perhaps satisfaction.
what are you working out? -

Re: Happiness or Meaning
Sun, April 22, 2007 - 11:12 AMI picked up a book and the premise was that finding one's meaning in life is what is more important than happiness. And it knocked the whole notion , life, liberty pursuit of happiness. ..
It seemed off a bit - then again i can see a situation where one would choose something that was meaningful over something that made them simply happy - i.e. self sacrifice.

Probably depends on whether we are talking about one's self or about everyone else. -
