   The less I try to compartmentalize thought, emotion, and action, and start just dealing with "states of being", the more my life flows nicely.
Happiness is a consequence of your choice of perception IMHO. It's not easy to language and very easy to misinterpret and misapply, and throw the baby out with the bathwater and conclude personal growth philosophy is all BS.

	^ I'd say happiness is a feeling rather than a concept, so you either feel it or you don't. That's what makes emotions different than concepts. I'd say devout religiousness is something I struggle to fully grasp.

	Happiness. I can experience it, but not understand it.
