The Search For Happiness

The most important thing in life is to be happy. But like Hector in the film 'Hector in the search for happiness. I'm intrigued to know what it is that brings us as humans: happiness.
This blog is inspired by the film starring Simon Pegg and Rosamund Pike. The film really resonated with me. It provoked deep feelings within my core and bought out deep underlying emotions.
In brief, the film is about a psychiatrist who lives with his girlfriend in England. They have a pretty normal, average life. After time Hector, the psychiatrist realises that he can't fully help his patients to be happy as he doesn't really understand happiness himself. So then he sets of on a journey from  exploring Asia, Africa and America in search for happiness.
Hectors girlfriend secretly packed him a journal like notebook which while on his travels he bullet points what happiness is.
This is his 'list'.
 
 I don't want to spoil this film as I think everyone should watch it but it does have a very happy ending :)
I think that this list is valuable and true but I believe that happiness is perhaps so much more. I want to explore and go deeper into it and uncover more layers in what happiness is.
In short that is what I've made this blog for.
