What if the words stood for "Does HARM Alot"
Or "Dental Horrifying, A Research Mouth Allocation"
Or "Doesn't Howard (Stern) A'Rock Much, Anymore?"
Or "Danish Holidays Are Really More Amusing"
Just a thought. ;D

Everyone wants to be happy and no one wants to suffer, but very few people understand the real causes of happiness and suffering. We tend to look for happiness outside ourself, thinking that if we had the right house, the right car, the right job, and the right friends we would be truly happy. We spend almost all our time adjusting the external world, trying to make it conform to our wishes. All our life we have tried to surround ourself with people and things that make us feel comfortable, secure, or stimulated, yet still we have not found pure and lasting happiness.
It is time we sought happiness from a different source. Happiness is a state of mind, so the real source of happiness must lie within the mind, not in external conditions. If our mind is pure and peaceful we shall be happy, regardless of our external circumstances, but if it is impure and unpeaceful we can never be truly happy, no matter how hard we try to change our external conditions. We could change our home or our partner countless times, but until we change our restless, discontented mind we shall never find true happiness.

Happiness is sitting at the computer accepting that new Lost episodes won't be on for another month and being in the Now with other Lost fans, fully feeling our connectedness.  That said, how 'bout another acronym for The DHARMA Initiative? The Dang Hippie Agenda Rocketing Me (to) Angst Initiative |
