The Thoughts of We

Recently published books and articles suggest that the word happiness is a misnomer.

The end of Happiness is the goal of human existence, and its pursuit must include the exercise of virtues. Aristotle defines happiness as the perfection of the human nature. It must be realized through intellectual contemplation. Aristotle also believes that the pursuit of happiness should be based on our moral character. The moral character must also exhibit virtues, such as courage and generosity. Further, we must be self-aware and self-reflective.
