Over these 75 years,
Harvard study on happiness has shown that
the people who fared the best were
the people who leaned in to relationships, with family, with friends, with community.
Good relationships keep us happier and healthier, than people who are less well connected.

Mark Twain says
"There isn't time, so brief is life, for bickerings, apologies, heartburnings, callings to account. There is only time for loving, and but an instant, so to speak, for that. "

I'm not surprised by Dr. Robert's findings, because in my life I can feel a good relationship that really makes me happier.

In my opinion, in addition to good intimacy, travel can make life better because it allows me to know the world with a happy heart.
