A Reliable Foundation for Happiness

DOROTHY NORMAN DAY

Individuals everywhere are engaged in the pursuit of happiness. Yet, though some find and maintain it, others struggle for it vainly. Why should this be? Might it not be because of a misapprehension of what happiness really is?

A helpful explanation is found in the writings of Mrs. Eddy. She says: "Happiness is spiritual, born of Truth and Love. It is unselfish; therefore it cannot exist alone, but requires all mankind to share it." Science and Health, p. 57; To seek happiness from a spiritual rather than a material standpoint is to place it on a far more reliable foundation. True happiness is lasting and available to all.
