Make the Trip

“Happiness is a way of travel, not a destination”, is a well known saying.  It means that you should start reviewing what happiness means for you. Detect if, deep inside, you still believe that – in order to be happy – you need to have more “stuff”. But your significance as a human being does not depend on how much you own, or even on how much you know. Owning material and/or non-material things is desirable but its certainly not enough. What is important is what makes you act in a certain way (mainly your values and motivations). What you actually “do” in life is what yields results, for yourself and for others. Be careful, therefore, because you are literally "re-creating" your life moment by moment. Life is a "trip" and you are the only one who chooses how to travel. And according to your choice, you will lead a more or a less serene existence.
