How (and how not) to be Happy w/ J. Budziszewski

 "Happiness means fulfillments, flourishing, something that is complete in itself and needs leaving nothing further to be desired, its abiding, something we're doing not feeling"

What does it lies in?
- Virtue- necessary conditions of happiness
- Partial- Felicitous- Practice virtue and hope for luck
- Complete, (leaves nothing further to be desired- Beatitude)
- Perfect Happiness won't be found in this life
- Face to Face to Him
- Subjective contentment
- You know we weep and that's a reason for rejoicing because if we were merely evolved mud there was no God we're only the meaningless and purposeless result of a process that did not have us in mind then we would be perfectly adapted to this world

Happiness- seeing face to face with God
Satisfaction- I accept what I had now, settling
