Happiness: - an interesting site and a free book by Walter E. Requadt

Smelled a Rose Today??  --  Why Not?

-----   The achievement of lasting happiness depends on our ability to understand and to align ourselves with the true nature of objective reality.

Epicurus showed us the way: He concluded that Happiness is rooted in the elimination of pain and the achievement of tranquility.    -------   Modern psychology confirms his ideas and provides further insights by correlating the pain/happiness syndrome with evolutionary psychology.  ------  Man now has the knowledge, and the choice, to free himself from the slavery of obsolete icons.

Before we can achieve happiness by closely aligning  ourselves with Objective Reality, we must clearly understand the true nature of Objective Reality ---  we must understand how the world really works --- even if we have to demolish a few "icons" and other popular misconceptions.
