Another question to consider (and maybe this will come up in later weeks):
How do we become unhappy?

I look at my two boys (19 months old) and am amazed at how generally happy they are.

Unless there's something obviously wrong (diaper,hunger, pain), they are constantly laughing and smiling.

They have it within them to be happy during every waking hour of the day and they use it to full effect.

So, what is it with adults that we are generally joyless throughout the day? There's nothing wrong, we're not sad, but we're not joyful. Why? How can we regain the constant joy of childhood?
