How often have you said, “I just want to be happy”? Have you ever stopped to consider exactly what happiness means? Is happiness having fun at a party, the excitement of new experiences, the delights of a fine meal. Although these are all wonderful experiences to be cherished and cultivated, they are not happiness, but a definition of pleasure. So, if happiness is not the same thing as pleasure, then what is happiness? Happiness is an attitude, which this retreat will explore by considering Jesus’ eight steps to happiness as stated in his beatitudes.
