Somehow I see what you say, Evan ("let's glory in misery") and what you say, Diane ("let's practice excessive happiness") as related. I imagine a big grin accompanying both comments ... Yay for exuberance! Patch Adams is a wonderful movie, I have to rent it again. So, so inspiring. I'm glad you made it down that mountain, Sarah. What a moment that must have been! Looking forward to hearing what you think abou the book. Thanks for your comments!

Thanks for this isabella! I remember laughing one of those laughs myself at the top of a mountain when a massive storm started and our whole party were wearing summer clothes, with a three hour walk down and no shelter. The laugh felt great but people treated me like a total madwoman for the rest of the trip. When it comes to misery I have definitely got some learning to do. Off to buy the book ;-) LOL!

Let's not be ashamed of pursuing, let's glory in it. Misery for all! Don't let happiness stand in your way. It's just a plot by marketers. Misery is cheaper, easier, accessible to all. Forget happiness, go with the majority. I think misery should be declared a human right. Let’s not be ashamed of pursuing, let’s glory in it.
