Happiness vs Meaning

There was a great TED TALK that someone posted on Facebook that I think that you might find interesting. The author and lecturer Emily Smith gave the presentation located by following this link:

Emily says that happiness is momentary and that only by having meaning in our lives will we truly be happy. She says that there are four pillars of meaning:

1. Belonging with others
2. Purpose (to serve others)
3. Transcendence (Feeling connected to hyper reality)
4. Storytelling or how we present the story of our life to others.

I think that you will truly enjoy this THREE MINUTE presentation.
