6. S.Fischer Das Buch vom Glücklichsein
The happiness of each person is so individual that there is no transferable formula for it. Only I can walk my own path. You must find your own way. When Jorge Bucay talks about being happy, he sees it as one of our greatest challenges. For hardly anything in our lives seems as susceptible to illusions and misconceptions as our idea of a fulfilled life. And yet there is a way: we must discover who we really are. Happiness is the fruit of a very personal search, a sincere approach to one's own life, so individual that there is no transferable formula for it. Does happiness exist? I believe it does. And if so, what does it consist of? Jorge Bucay draws on the sum of his personal and therapeutic experiences: a life's work that helps his readers to be happy.
