“We could … produce the Fundamentally Sound, Sure-Fire Top Five Components of Happiness: (1) Be in possession of the basics — food, shelter, good health, safety. (2) Get enough sleep. (3) Have relationships that matter to you. (4) Take compassionate care of others and of yourself. (5) Have work or an interest that engages you.”
(via jamiedaniel: Amy Bloom in Sunday’s Book Review on the annoying simplification of happiness in the self-help genre. Read it.)
Oh, because these five are so easy. This article hits exactly the points I’ve been thinking about for a while now - thanks, Jamie!
