-Kasser & Ryan 1993.
Our external actions are generated by one of two forces. Those who commit on the sole purpose of true enjoyment and those who strive for riches or even fame. I can only begin to ask myself, at what time or during what activity do I fall into either group.
Then I started to think about fame. Is it possible for happiness to incorporate fame. I'm searching history and I'm sure no one would argue that Hitler did achieve fame (the means unjustifiable of course) but through out it all did he find happiness. Can you have one without the other?
Has history ever played host to someone who first found happiness which then led to fame.
What then of The need for power? and its relationship to happiness (if any).....
Darkness sees no fault. No human imperfection as far as genetics are concerned. Shadows cannot lie, for their very being is an absolute image. Reflected only in the presence of light, yet there is no prejudice. The still of night carries with her a sense of peace, every whisper amplified yet each word lost in translations. Oh how long shall the shadows I've so long embraced play garment,cloak to my eternal night?
