Thanks for the link.
This really really stood out to me:

Happiness is the process, not the place," he said via e-mail. "So many of us think that when we get everything just right, and obtain certain goals and circumstances, everything will be in place and we will be happy.... But once we get everything in place, we still need new goals and activities.

Right now I keep thinking to myself "once I get the business going, once I move to the beach, once I make new friends, once I get a social life" etc etc, I'll be satisfied. I think it's more satisfaction than happy I'm after. I'm happy now, but I'm not as happy as I want to be and I'm not having as much fus as I want to be.
What do you guys think? That seems like a not so great way of looking at things, but it's seems like it's what'll make me happy. I don't know, is there a difference between enjoying what you're doing, and being happy(and or satisfied)? Because I'm enjoying what I'm doing, so it's not like I'm miserable, I'm just not "living" as much as I want to be.
