Staying happy is a difficult thing for many Americans but all it takes is some time with family or friends every day. The Indians show this in the story When Grizzlies Walked Upright by Richard Erdoes and Alfonso Ortiz tell past stories of adventure and dance by the fire with their loved ones.

A person who receives “no joy or pride from the activities that compromise it, can be said to lack meaning” in their life (Wolf 34). This is absolutely true.

One way to get hurt is to be so bored, that it will lead to doing dangerous things. This happens, because “Being bored can lead to anxiety, and it can be very destructive” (p.29).
Pleasure is not coincidental to the great life; it is the sentiment fulfillment we have when living well. Living well is more similar to a definitive estimation of your life as lived up to this minute, measuring how well you have satisfied your maximum capacity as an
The perfect bliss we experience, with too much “fun”, will look too good for what we should be able to comprehend (“look too expensive”).

You can read, you can sit for hours and think about what is the meaning of life what is my purpose of living. But you’ll never experience it if you don’t understand the beauty of life until you experience it yourself.
