Reflections

 

This section contains some of my contemplations related to the Philosophy of Happiness. They are precursors, companions, and afterthoughts of various length and form.

 

The single essays can be read and listened to by clicking on the titles below. All together are also available in the Philosophic Reflections e-book (PDF, 43 pages), which can be downloaded free-of-charge here.

 

I am publishing these because they might help readers relate to my inspirations in developing a philosophy of happiness, might illustrate some of its concepts and results, and might encourage readers to search out and give voice to their own reflections about happiness. All access and use is subject to the  Terms of Use.
