Joie de Vivre (Joy of Living) Pursuit of happiness as an inalienable right of all humans (U. S. Declaration of Independence) We need to feel that we deserve to be happy!
Victory When we overcome hardship or learn to accept our suffering without causing more suffering We may learn to yield, to gain acceptance, and gratitude. We may realize our internal courage. We may experience grace. We feel that at least for that moment, we are on the right path.
