What would it take for you to be happy? A new house? A fulfilling job? A perfect mate? A bulging bank account? A thinner body? What if you could be happy regardless of your circumstances? Everyone wants to be happy. This idyllic state is so compelling, attractive, and downright irresistible that we spend our lives trying to get it. Aristotle declared happiness the meaning and the purpose of life. While happiness is the aim of human existence, we are not always sure how to attain it. And often the things that we do to attain happiness do not make us happy in the long run. How can this be? Don't we know our desires, needs, and preferences? Life satisfaction, we believe, is ephemeral-just over the horizon-and merely a matter of getting thinner, younger, more attractive, having a baby, making a million dollars, getting hitched or divorced, buying a house or a bigger house, relocating, or landing a dream job. In Laugh, It's Just Life, Karla Baker illuminates popular notions about how to achieve happiness. Through a series of humorous vignettes, she shows us how our everyday perceptions can stifle authentic fulfillment and derail our happiness. In this book you will discover entertaining and compelling real-life stories of people who have who found happiness without relying solely on money, relationships, appearance, or achievements. Although getting richer, thinner, and sexier are part of the "cultural code" for happiness, the satisfaction gained from these pursuits is largely temporary, which leaves us in constant pursuit of our next desire to feel happy. Brimming with edifying anecdotes about both successful and not so successful paths to happiness, Laugh, It's Just Life liberates us from contemporary messages and brings us closer to the fulfilling life that we desire. Baker is insightful and witty, and has a knack for bringing intricate truths to light. She finds the common ground in all of us. If you are a bit worn with traditional self help books that offer "advice" on how to be happy and would rather listen to others who have followed the path to happiness that you are considering, Laugh, It's Just Life is the book for you. Not only is it useful and accessible, it is filled with laugh-out-loud humor!
