next project: build a radar that can detect potential happiness

from the pages of my sketchbook, drawn on october 11, 2005 while listening to a.p-g speak phenomenal life truths. a compilation of things overheard re: what happiness is...i do not remember where they all came from===> "happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony"..."happiness consists in activity. it is a running stream, not a stagnant pool"..."the greatest happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved; loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves"..."they must often change, whose who desire to be constant in happiness or wisdom"..."true happiness comes from the joy of deeds well done, the zest of creating things new"..."each morning the day lies like a fresh shirt on our bed; this incomparably fine, incomparably tightly woven tissue of pure prediction fits us perfectly. the happiness of the next twenty-four hours depends on our ability, on waking, to pick it up."
