It's easy to spend our lives chasing happiness like a prize waiting at the end of the journey. We convince ourselves that when we land the next deal, hit the next milestone, make a little more money, or finally get through a difficult season, then we'll be happy. But the finish line has a funny way of moving every time we get close. What if happiness isn't even what we should be chasing? Happiness comes and goes with our circumstances, but contentment, joy, and meaning can endure through them. We can learn to appreciate what we have while still working toward what could be. There's nothing wrong with being ambitious and wanting more out of life, but don't become so focused on where you're going that you miss the joy of where you are.
