�Ask yourself whether you are happy, and you cease to be so. The only chance is to treat, not happiness, but some end external to it, as the purpose of life. Let your self-consciousness, your scrutiny, your self-interrogation, exhaust themselves on that; and if otherwise fortunately circumstanced you will inhale happiness with the air you breathe, without dwelling on it or thinking about it, without either forestalling it in imagination, or putting it to flight by fatal questioning. This theory now became the basis of my philosophy of life.�
---John Stuart Mill

In other words: if you are asking yourself whether you are happy, you are probably not?

anyway ALTHOUGH it looks like i have been oh-so inspired by public law lately, i am not inspired to do my essay at all. bah. i have to keep reminding myself that it is only 3,000 words, that i should NOT be taking it over seriously (it is (only) 20%. i think). on the other hand i should ALSO NOT TAKE IT TOO LIGHTLY. it is a very delicate balance. most crucially i must not start playing Plants vs Zombies. when i do, i know i am doomed. the rest of my day, is doomed.

at this point im just talking to myself so uhh ok i should go back to my essay rah rah rah
