happiness :D

Hello reader! This time I´m going to talk about a video, “The surprising science of happiness”. In this video Dan Gilbert talks about happiness studies and his conclusions.

Starts talking about the brain and his “history”. How the brain become more complex and unique if you make a compare with the brain of other species. Mention the apparition of the pre-frontal cortex. All this changes on the human brain helps to the creation of synthetic happiness.  

Synthetic happiness is a construction created in our minds because natural happiness is too hard to get in a limited-freedom context. Dan Gilbert says that the synthetic happiness is equally important that the natural happiness. The big difference between these two concepts is the freedom. More freedom is more natural happiness and less synthetic happiness and less freedom is more synthetic happiness and less natural happiness.

I think that the concept “happiness” is very important to each person. A lot of people spends all his life searching that happiness and sometimes they really don´t know about the meaning of this word. Is important don´t forget that the actual society can take away our freedom (is the way to live with others without problems).

With these ideas you can think that the synthetic happiness is good sometimes but the natural happiness is necessary because that shows our real freedom.
