Victor Frankl's Man Search for Meaning dives deep into the importance of meaning in fulfillment (and ultimately joy which trumps happiness). A person can be joyous in the midst of pain, like a mother who's given birth to their child. Positive emotions are not the metric of success, but true meaning and purpose can lead us to long-lasting happiness (joy). Great insights Monica.

I feel very lucky to have had a sense of wonder and curiosity for as long as I could remember. All of my siblings and my parents are the types who don't question anything. They accept that things are just the way they are. I couldn't imagine living my life in that way. I always feel there is something new to explore and I get blissful feelings witnessing miracles everyday.

The size and scale of the universe and the understanding of the privilege of being self-aware has helped me for many years cope with depression and the anxieties of life... Understanding that we are small insignificant ants in the context of the universe calms me... We are privileged to get this experience on this rock we call Earth and we are privileged to have the means to be self-aware of it and our tiny little spot in this vast universe...

Thanks for this video. I will certainly be more mindful of all of the wonder around me. I have an extremely rare neurological disease and for some reason people are compelled to tell me that having positivity, faith, or gratitude will somehow lead to me being healed or recovered. What they donât realize is that I can still have a positive attitude while accepting my disease, I can still have faith without begging my creator for a miracle, and I can still be thankful for all the good in my life while having a gloomy day. I feel that being genuine about my emotions is more positive than faking a smile. This video really resonated with me.

I swear, I'm halfway through my life and I have struggled with drugs and alcohol and trying to find myself out here where everyone tells you who you should or could be.
2024 has given me so many answers! The YEAR OF TRUTH! I absolutely love all of this information coming out without any sort of twisting or manipulating words. Yes!
KEEP GOING!!!!!!! â¤

3:55 Thank you, Ms. Parker !!! Indeed, a biggest âbarrierâ in the current U.S. pop-culture â likewise, most of the world â is Oprah Winfrey ⌠By the same token, Miss Gayle King is a true âwonderâ to have been putting up w/ Miss Oprah for more than 40 years !!!

The idea of toxic positivity resonates with me deeply. I often find that one of the pernicious side effects of religion (at its best I.e. not causing genocides lol) is that if youâre sad, you should shut that down and have âmore faithâ. This causes derision in the self, because the emotion is there. A gimmicky solution such as âfaithâ doesnât allow our brains to process and heal.

I'm not buying into the happiness vs. wonder context of this video. I just don't think they are mutually exclusive and we tend to distract our from our paths by giving too much attention to others performances of "happiness". Happiness is something very personal for each of us to unpack, but for me I'd describe it as combo of feeling safe, empowered, inspired, grateful and full of curiosity, possibility and wonder. All feeling are valid and need to be acknowledged for health and balance, but lot of us don't feel we have permission to use our own happiness, and pursuit there of, as the compass to navigate through the decisions we have to make in life.

I find sense in looking for wonder instead of happiness. Happiness comes naturaaly if we experience wonder. Its like money comes whe we love our work. If we just look for money we may not get money, money is a by product of hard work which come from enjoying your work, interest in your work field.

This is basically how I've kept going this long. I've never been really happy except in brief snatches, and I have almost always been lonely and tormented to one degree or another. But I never cease to be in awe of my own existence in this inconceivably beautiful and complicated world.
