4 worlds of happiness

The capacity for resilience put in place by citizens and businesses, is only the premise of the path that in 2023 will be under the banner of Discernment. Each element separated (the good and the bad that history imposes) and discern the righteous, seen more clearly, but even all that which makes us happy. The time has now come to react and intervene, to choose and pursue the true good and at the same time personal happiness.
Particularly 4 dimensions that derive from the etymology of the word happiness in four different cultures will be explored: Eudamonìa from ancient Greek (the happiness of doing things well), Felicitas from Latin (the happiness of bloom), Ashré from Hebrew (the happiness of moving towards one’s goals) and Happiness from English (happiness as an opportunity to be seized).
