Dan Gilbert believes that, in our ardent, lifelong pursuit of happiness, most of us have the wrong map. In the same way that optical illusions fool our eyes -- and fool everyone’s eyes in the same way -- Gilbert argues that our brains systematically misjudge what will make us happy. And these quirks in our cognition make humans very poor predictors of our own bliss.

When I truly feel, very very deeply, that I can love, I feel soooooo Happy.
The deeper, the more authentic, the more natural, the less intellectual, is the love that I manage to offer, the sweeter my happiness...
very very deep... purple.
