Anyone watching the PBS series "This Emotional Life"? I highly recommend it!

[BridgeTheGap]

This 3-part series represents what television does best. It opens a window into real lives, exploring ways to improve our social relationships, cope with emotional issues, and become more positive, resilient individuals. Hosted by Daniel Gilbert, Harvard psychologist and best-selling author of Stumbling on Happiness.

3. Good...informative...TV....

...you might actually learn something?

I disagree with the continual conclusion that the only way to find happiness is by relating to other people.

People who need people....? Go Barbra? :grouphug:

4. Yeah, really. Did they bother interviewing the hermits of the world? Hell no! But, then

the hermits probably would not have gone for an interview any way.

5. As stated in the show...the "groupies" reproduce like rabbits...

...thus they are a much higher % of the population. They also have lots of wars and much like lemmings....herd together and jump off cliffs. :eyes:

They are very suspicious of hermits and loners....since not being an active part of a group...they are an unknown and uncontrolled element?
