A great human - The Chief Happiness Officer Blog

A great human - The Chief Happiness Officer Blog Movie critic Roger Ebert has lost his voice, his ability to eat and drink and most of his jaw to cancer, but as this fantastic interview in Esquire shows, the man still has a lot to say. Towards the end of the article, he sums up his life philosophy: I believe that if, at the end of it all, according to our abilities, we have done something to make others a little happier, and something to make ourselves a little happier, that is about the best we can do. To make others less happy is a crime. To make ourselves unhappy is where all crime starts. We must try to contribute joy to the world. That is true no matter what our problems, our health, our circumstances. We must try. I didnt always know this, and am happy I lived long enough to find it out. Thats it were here to be happy and make others happy. Thats the meaning of life. Also, you can tell from the article that Ebert is still happy at work indeed that writing is a large part of what keeps him going. Go read the whole interview its great! It had me in tears by the end. Thanks for visiting my blog. If you're new here, you should check out this list of my 10 most popular articles.
