I am very interested in the concept of happiness. Although I am generally satisfied my happiness level is far too low and I find myself brooding far too often. Thus, I've been interested in understanding happiness. Oddly, learning about religion, atheism and psychology has been extremely satisfying and brings a feeling of happiness.
I find the learning process especially exciting. It's like solving an immense puzzle (or playing a game with many levels) where each piece represents another truth to some ultimate understanding. Or, maybe it's like a movie or book that is so engaging you find yourself wishing it won't end. Religion offers empty answers but science and skepticism offers real, verifiable truth with astonishing miracles beyond what any superstitious mind could conjure.
For you other happiness-seekers, here is an enjoyable video by Raj Persaud, psychiatrist on happiness:

(for some reason, Fora TV is giving me the wrong ID code when I try to embed the video. Anyone know why? This is definitely NOT making me happy....)
