happiness is not a passing impulse, or a momentary excitement, but rather a lifestyle; a continuous identification with person and moral beauty, spiritual virtue and the peace of knowing a clear conscience. Instead of dissipating energy in the fruitless seeking of momentary gratification, experience the rapture that only comes through self-mastery. This is the source of real worth. External experiences become fulfilling, for they are feeding not the momentary impulses of desire, but rather the consciousness of love to which the soul is awakening.
