just a quickie

I thought I should write something here soon since my blog's fast becoming dusty.

Something random I read today in The Sunday Times:
"According to Dr Martin Seligman, a pioneer in the field of positive psychology, he highlights in his book Authentic Happiness that 'it is possible to achieve greater happiness no matter what your circumstances are... [by having] positive emotions, engagement and meaning in your life.'"

This ties in quite nicely with another article I've read:
"I seek not happiness but satisfaction, contentment and fruitfulness in growing older".

On my school-work, its been a tad difficult to back-date on all the work that should have been done in the past few weeks, but not done due to my exams and all. So this week has been a frantic game of playing catch up. But I guess the dust is slowly settling, and I am finally getting down to doing the stuff I'm really interested in, which is making a meaningful and positive impact in my students' lives, though I'll only be around for a while more. hmmm
