生活不是為了快樂 (Life is Not About Being Happy)
- And judged on this basis, many of us have to admit, in the silence of our minds, that we're not really doing very well. There's so much that every year, and perhaps almost every day, comes along to spoil our ambitions. There's a power struggle at the office, there's a problem in our families, our friends feel superficial or disengaged, our anxieties don't abate and our relationships are scratchy or distant. Our difficulties generate a basic layer of misery, but then a secondary layer is swiftly added to it, caused by an underlying sense that our unhappiness represents a fundamental violation of life's true purpose. Not only are we unhappy, we are unhappy that we are unhappy, in the light of our tightly held belief in the possibility of a state of enduring satisfaction. We're both sad and crushed that we have failed at the single most important goal open to all sane and ambitious humans.
據此判斷，我們中的許多人不得不在沉默中承認，我們做得並不好。每年，也許幾乎每天，都會有很多事情來破壞我們的雄心壯志。辦公室裡的權力鬥爭，家庭中的問題，朋友們的膚淺或疏遠，我們的焦慮並沒有減輕，我們的人際關係也很微妙或疏遠。我們的困難產生了一層基本的痛苦，但隨後又迅速增加了第二層痛苦，這是由一種潛在的感覺造成的，即我們的不快樂從根本上違背了生活的真正目的。我們不僅不快樂，我們還因為自己不快樂而不快樂，因為我們堅信有可能獲得持久的滿足。我們既悲傷又崩潰，因為我們未能實現所有理智而有抱負的人所追求的最重要的目標
