The Cure for Unhappiness | Life Changing Podcasts

Listen to episode 656 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Cure for Unhappiness. Edited and adapted from Character and Happiness by Alvin Edwin Magary.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: There is no cure for the unhappiness of regret, or the sorrow of bereavement, that is so effective as a well-defined purpose. Misery cannot live with resolution. As soon as we “make up our minds,” relief comes. A course of action is better for most cases of unhappiness than a course of medicine. People talk of “divine discontent” and of “ambition’s holy fire,” but these things are neither divine nor holy. Discontent no more incites to action than indigestion does to appetite. In both cases there is a gnawing hunger that can never be satisfied. Ambition is thus often a torture, a tempter, a whip without a bridle.
