"You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you mad."
"Universal happiness keeps the wheels steadily turning, truth and beauty can't."
- Aldous Huxley
"When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life."
- John Lennon

After watching this vid, I'm curious on other people's views on this matter, what does it mean for you to live well, what does it mean for you to be happy?
What makes you happy, pursuiment of materialistic goals or achievement of certain smaller goals that go far beyond simply the amassment of material wealth or social status?
