1st quarter reflection   

Happy




We just finished reading a book which, intentionally or not, which focused on  unhappiness at both personal and societal levels and examined some of its root causes.  

Today, I would like us to watch some of the documentary "Happy", which examines the field of positive psychology and th pursuit of happiness.

We can use this documentary to reflect on Hawthorne's ideas and our own lives and as a springboard to the study of Transcendentalism and Into The Wild,  a philosophical movement and a text, respectively, which explore what it means to live life fully and meaningfully.
