On Happiness

Great article from NYT's by Paul Bloom on happiness, and the tension between long and short-term goals.

Check it out I think it does a really good job summarizing the internal conflict we see in our everyday life, and in the larger decisions we make as well.

Personally, I find that it is the long-term Socrates which has far too much control over my personal Homer. But its an interesting struggle all the same.
