"It is not doing the thing we like to do, but liking the thing we have to do, that makes life blessed." Johann Wolfgang von Goethe / the impulsive part of the mind is programed to believe externals bring happiness - the reflective part of the mind can reprogram it / "I acted and behold, service was joy." - Rabindranath Tagore / what are "fruitive activities"? / material enjoyment comes with suffering - no way around it / even Michael Jordan's not happy / when we try to take Krishna's role we crash
