Confucius say...

As I type, there is a slip from a fortune cookie that is staring back at me from my computer desk. Usually fortunes are chuckled at and pitched, never to be thought of again, but this one begged further pondering. It reads:

"Some pursue happiness; you create it."

I felt a parallel with this idea. Denied the chance to seek out sources of happiness, One must construct them from within. Does it stop with happiness, though? Here is my question to you. Think it through, don't answer to yourself hastily. This is an exercise in introspection. Fill in the blank:

"Some pursue _______; I create it."

To thine own self be true. Happy meditating.
