Happiness is a funny thing. It’s not a chemical in our blood. It’s not a spot in our brain that “lights up” under the gaze of an MRI. We have no account of it that goes up and down as we get a new job or a loved one takes ill or our favorite team wins the World Series.
At the same time, happiness is — or at least should be — something in which we’re quite interested. What makes it go up? What makes it go down? We’ll do quite a bit to obtain money, and the government will do quite a bit to try to ensure economic growth. But that money is ultimately supposed to bring us satisfaction, joy, contentment. And, yet, how do we know whether or not it has?
