Greeting to all...

Artificial Happiness
Today I want to write about the artificial happiness which is the non- correct definition of happiness for the majority of people nowadays.

In western society, especially in North America, happiness is defined through the achievement of several ideas (eg: a successful family; creating great monetary wealth for oneself; and being physically beautiful even through old age).

Happiness is also sometimes defined as always being current according to the latest current fads. People who are not updated are seen as unhappy because they are old or out of date, or because they do not have benefit of the fad.

Cultural fads can include keeping one's clothes in fashion, going to the latest clubs, restaurants or bars, buying consumer products seen as trendy or cool, or changing a hairstyle that is current.

These 'ideals' are too superficial, consumerist and unsatisfying.

The happy or ideal life is one that is personally defined, fulfilled, natural, peaceful, or that detracts in some way from these societal norms.
