Happiness (Book On...) (Book On...)

The joy experienced in creative work alone is real happiness, and all things else you might regard as such will surely, if you trust them, betray and rob you of true happiness, as much as one can find it in this life. Bear in mind that even here and now - indeed, while you are reading this - you find yourself in the very midst of eternal life. And what you cannot here and now accomplish for yourself, no "God above" shall in your place create for you in all eternity. By virtue of creating happiness in your own life, you tangibly increase the sum of happiness experienced on this earth. And thereby you accomplish more for mankind as a whole than by attempting to establish in your outer world the most beguiling of utopian theories.
