“Life's true aim is not happiness. We are told otherwise and sold a fleeting dream. Life’s true aim lies in equanimity—in perfect balance. It is a state of being where the relentless chase for happiness ceases, and the resistance against sorrow dissolves. It is a harmonious dance with the present, unburdened by the pursuit or avoidance of things that are ultimately transient.” — G. Scott Graham
