Life as an art

A few days ago I have started readind the newest book of Zygmunt Bauman "The art of life". He is talking about felicity in our modern-liquid world. He asked: "what is wrong with happyness?"
We are happy till we don't loose the hope to be happy in the future. It's so deep and when I repeat this sentence in my mind I really feel happy....




So.. how to keep the hope alive? Bauman suggests that only when we have in front of us a new possibilities, new fast beginnings, the prospective of infinitive chain of beginnings.We have to create a difficult challenges. We have to choose the objectives that are over our present possibilities. We have to try "the impossible". The life is emotional and worked out. Emotional for people who loves adventures. The life is used for people who has weak heart.
At the end Bauman leaves as with question - we have to decide if constraint of searching of happyness in his practical form in our society (consumism' society) - make us really happy?
Why we have to search felicity?
Beeing forced to do (feel) something for me mean not to be free and ugual non to be happy.

G'day mates!
