Frank, are you happy? I mean you have a big house and you have a car.
I don't know, Lisa. A lot of people also have houses and cars.
You mean you want to have more than other people and this will make you happy?
Possibly.
Then you're looking for relative happiness.
Ok, Lisa, what do you think is happiness?
Well, through the centuries, people have offered quite different definitions of happiness such as happy people were married women and single men, or happiness meant serf-gratification, or happiness could be achieved by eating less or eating more.
So happiness is rather elusive?
I think the happiest people are those who find joy in their daily lives, and who enjoy their friendships, families, work and hobbies.
You mean they are not bothered by the desire to get something more, something new, something better?
You couldn't be more correct. One more thing, Frank, if you are happy, you may not be satisfied with your life.
What do you mean?
