The Pursuit of Happiness is an essential human right. Both Confucius and Socrates insisted that well-being and personal growth were a major purpose of life , and a central goal of education. Thomas Jefferson and the founders of U.S. government recognized this.

More than two hundred years later, our schools and universities are still neglecting these goals. We are so busy pursuing intellectual skills that we have neglected the pursuit of happiness. We have forgotten Aristotle’s warning : Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.
