Ep.#119: Do you need to be happy‪?‬ Shot of Philosophy

    • Självhjälp

Eudaimonia: "The peculiar but fascinating Greek word is a little hard to translate. It almost means 'happiness; but is really closer to 'fulfillment," because 'happiness' suggests continuous chirpiness- whereas 'fulfillment' is more compatible with periods of great pain and suffering- which seem to be an unavoidable part even of a good life."
