A letter from Uncle Charles
I do not know about you, but what I seek in life is happiness. I’ve gone through tough times in
my life which made me discouraged, sad and cry. I’ve also gone through times in my life where
I’ve experienced so much joy; joy which made me want to live more. The happiness feeling is
one great experience, and that’s what I seek in my life.
Life is too short; we are past the halfway line of the year, and it feels like yesterday when we
ushered in the new year. Are there experiences throughout the first half of the year that made you
happy? Are you currently in a job that makes you happy? A relationship that makes you happy?
Or even studying, learning or doing things that make you happy?
It will be painful to live so many years in your life only to realize that you never lived life, or the
years you lived never gave you meaning.
I was privileged to be at a meeting in Mombasa, Kenya, where a great logistician, Issac Baluch,
was facilitating. He introduced me to “The Science of Happiness.”
And this is what he had to say.
