Our readingWhat is a korrent?
Drawn from what Ralph Waldo Emerson said
happiness What makes a life go well: whether it is meaning, love, virtue, enough money, or simply expecting less.
To fill the hour,—that is happiness; to fill the hour and leave no crevice for a repentance or an approval. We live amid surfaces, and the true art of life is to skate well on them.
