Don't you love this title: Is the Pursuit of Happiness Making You Depressed? Someone else is always giving us advice. Do this or that to be happier? Eat or don't eat this or that to be thinner. Use this exercise equipment to get in better shape. Take this pill to increase your will power. Etc. Etc. Etc. Maybe we need to take our own advice more often. Figure out what makes you happy and do that more often. And don't forget there's a difference between being happy and having your own way. Often life deals us a blow, big or little, that makes happiness seem unreachable. Real happiness comes from inside, and can quitely be there ready to comfort us even when outside happiness is momentarily absent.
