The meaning of happiness
Read from a psychiatry book, depression has three components:
Feel bad about oneself. – I cannot be the one I want to be
Feel bad about one’s future – my future is so dark
Feel bad about one’s surrounding -- nobody like me
On the same token, can we think happiness also has three components:
Feel good about oneself – I am doing good, I can make it
Feel good about future – everything will be fine, in the way I want them to be
Feel good about surrounding – I am attractive, everybody like me
