Age-Old Myth

You have a lot of interesting questions at the beginning of your essay, such as, “ Is it just an emotion or is it a state of mind? Is a long and happy life an age-old myth ? ” You wrote about Aristotle and Seligman's definition of happiness, and I love the way you write these definitions, which allows me to better understand what happiness is. And I also like your example in the article, “You might get your kicks from advanced yoga workouts, but your friend might think that bending and stretching into human pretzel formations isn’t nearly as much fun as riding roller coasters. Your neighbor might find happiness mowing the lawn in the early hours of a summer’s morning, but there’s a good chance that you have another word or two to describe how that “dawn” mowing makes you feel….” These examples are very interesting and very image.
