From the excellent documentary on Studio Ghibli and Hayao Miyazaki, The Kingdom of Dreams and Madness, Miyazaki reflects on the the common idea that the goal of life is to be happy. Miyazaki disagrees, and this struck me because I've long felt the same way. Maybe a goal might be to make someone else happy. Or maybe a goal is to spend a lifetime mastering a skill. But I'm cynical about personal happiness as a goal.
