Happiness

One of my favourite places on the web is TED.com, where I love to lose myself in the sea of TedTalks. Catching up on the backlog in my feed reader, I came across the talk given by Buddhist monk, Matthieu Ricard, on the habits of happiness. He talks about the futility of basing our happiness on external factors (location, fame, the right little black dress) and instead talks about nurturing internal conditions happiness. Who'd have thought happiness was a habit.
