The Road to Happiness
If you look around at the men and women whomyou can call happy, you will see that they all havecertain things in common. The most important ofthese things is an activity which at most graduallybuilds up something that you are glad to see cominginto existence. Women who take an instinctivepleasure in their children can get this kind ofsatisfaction out of bringing up a family.
Artists and authors and men of science gethappiness in this way if their own work seems goodto them. But there are many humbler forms of the same kind of pleasure. Many men who spendtheir working life in the city devote their weekends to voluntary and unremunerated toil in theirgardens, and when the spring comes, they experience all the joys of having created beauty.
The whole subject of happiness has, in my opinion,been treated too solemnly. It had beenthought that man cannot be happy without a theory of life or a religion. Perhaps those whohave been rendered unhappy by a bad theory may need a better theory to help them torecovery, just as you may need a tonic when you have been ill. But when things are normal aman should be healthy without a tonic and happy without a theory. It is the simple things thatreally matter. If a man delights in his wife and children, has success in work, and finds pleasurein the alternation of day and night, spring and autumn, he will be happy whatever hisphilosophy may be. If, on the other hand, he finds his wife fateful, his children’s noiseunendurable, and the office a nightmare; if in the daytime he longs for night, and at nightsighs for the light of day, then what he needs is not a new philosophy but a new regimen —adifferent diet, or more exercise, or what not. Man is an animal, and his happiness depends onhis physiology more than he likes to think. This is a humble conclusion, but I cannot makemyself disbelieve it. Unhappy businessmen, I am convinced,would increase their happinessmore by walking six miles every day than by any conceivable change of philosophy.
