Happiness, Contentment, Life-Satisfaction, Joy. These are objectives or motivating factors in the lives of most people, even people who would deny that. They will certainly be motivating factors in the lives of our children. Truthfully, when centered and guided, they are excellent motivators. Yet when we chase after happiness alone, unguided by higher principles, we find that it crumples and decays while still in our hands. We watch it evaporate and even rot while still fresh and new. So we chase after more. What we've tasted for moments we crave more of. It becomes a drug whose last fix isn't quite enough to make us quite as high this time around.
What if there were another way? What if there were actually secrets to joy and contentment which could be found, yet they would never be found by looking where most look or doing what most do? Would we want to know? Would we want to be able to share these insights with our children so they could pursue genuine life satisfaction in the right ways? Yes of course this is something every good parent would want. Let's look at that today.
