"Happiness"Written by Bob Curtis
Without getting into core basics of philosophy, I will make a few statements about Happiness. Happiness is probably most sought after emotion, and hardest to retain on an ongoing basis. We all can experience moments of joy that make us happy. I have found that I am most consistently happy when I am trying to help others to find happiness. The word “service” comes to mind. In our own relationships, we are happiest when we are doing things for each other. And they don’t even need to be big or grandiose things. Just little things. Things like a simple compliment for a thoughtful act. A word about how dinner went so well. “How was your day?”...and then listen to what they say. It is being together when you are together., and wishing you were together when you are not. It is always praising your partner and never saying anything bad about your partner to anyone. It is encouraging one another to higher education. Encouragement to improve talents and skills and hobbies. Encouragement to follow one’s dreams. Dreams are catalyst of real passion.

There are many thoughts that word "dating" brings about. Many of us have had both bad and good experiences with dating. Most of us can say that those experiences go back to our teenage years, when we first began dating.As we developed into a teenager, our maturity evolves and emerge, as does our experience with dating. Dating, awe inspiring teenage ~thing~ to do, one of life~s greatest milestones, finally we are into it, girl meets boy or boy meets girl and suddenly we are thrown into often exciting world of dating! So what is all hoopla about? In times gone by, courting was olden day version of more modern times dating. Courting, sort of a catch me if you can type dating scenario was a societal event. Courting was time to get to know one another, to develop a friendship before routine of a relationship were thrown into mix. These days we call it dating, but it is a far cry from ritualistic courting that our ancestors were accustomed to. Or is it? Maybe today we are much more open and that openness has become big difference in courting versus dating. Dating is modern! Dating is hip! Dating is definition of hormonal overload! Unfortunately gone are days where impressing them was aim of game; whereas today, dating is much more complicated than that!
