Sigourney Weaver’s career includes roles as Ellen Ripley in the “Alien” film series, Dana Barrett in Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters II and Dian Fossey in Gorillas in the Mist. She recently starred in USA Network’s miniseries Political Animals.

The Pursuit of Happiness

11 hours ago 8 comments Categories: Lifestyle Tags:

Jefferson’s three examples of our unalienable rights in the Declaration of Independence are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Happiness is the state of Felicity.

It has been said that it’s not how much we have but how much we enjoy, that makes happiness (Charles Spurgeon).

Lincoln added most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be.

The top 10 things that come mind that make me happy are (not necessarily in the order of importance):

1) French Champagne
2) Family
3) Gotham
4) Winning (fun is more fun when you win)
5) Key West
6) Charcoal
7) Psychic compensation (from Giving)
8) Home made Ice cream
9) Uncontrollable laughter
10) Dreaming up things and seeing them through to creation

Did I miss anything? If so, pursue them!
