Children are our second chance to have a great parent-child relationship.
The TEN Commandments are not prefaced with "If you're in the mood".
You don't go by your feelings. You do what is right.
People from the most horrendous of childhoods can have good lives, but it comes down to a very seemingly simple word. 'Choice.'
In this regard, pleasure is an event; happiness is a process. Pleasure is an end point; happiness is the journey. Pleasure is material; happiness is spiritual. Pleasure is self-involved; happiness is outer- and other-involved.
