happiness

Yesterday on my drive home I listened to this conversation with the Dalai Lama, a British rabbi and an American Episcopal priest. It was a lovely accompaniment to my drive across North Carolina.

Today I was reading about happiness and found encouragement to”increase flow experiences”. While it sounds hokey and potentially is kind of hokey, the idea is to find that state where time seems to stand still. Or, where “action and awareness are merged.” It’s when you’re engaged in what you are doing so that you aren’t bothered by distractions. I feel this way when I’m reading a good book, which is what I wish I were doing all week instead of working.
