You can't know that something will make you happy until you've experienced it.
If you're really in charge of your faculties, you'll make your own happiness
instead of letting external factors do it for you.
As Lincoln has said, "We're about as happy as we make up our minds to be."
When explanations rely on their ability to satisfy, that's when we get a myriad
of explanations, and everyone chooses the one that best satisfies them.

"problem"? What problem? Mind requires no explanation.
All that is important is the truth.
>I mean, HONESTLY.
We all mean honestly. Very few succeed.

There is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the
Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced
by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which
states that this has already happened.
