happiness. happiness has to have a meaning. people spend their entire lives looking for it in its various forms. for each person, there is a different means of achieving this happiness (an outlet if you will). whether it be playing music, drawing, singing dancing, helping others, reading,writing, white-water-rafting, playing basketball... whatever. and unlike all the other uncertain things in life, i know for a fact that happiness has meaning because nothing- absolutely nothing- can replace it. take for example even a man with everything in the world, material riches, power, influence, women etc but lacking an outlet to his true happiness (say loosing the ability to dance the samba after being injured trying to crip walk down mt everest) there will still be very real and a very noticeable void amongst all else. no matter how many cars he can buy, no matter how many females he has, no matter how he may try to fill that void, he will always be reminded that true happiness has a meaning.
-The richest man is not he who has the most, but he who needs the least.
