The Search for Happiness

By Kathy B.


NBC News set out to discover how joyous people found happiness. During one brief segment, a reporter interviewed several nuns who lived in a convent. They portrayed happiness, and their life expectancy was 10 years beyond that of the average woman.

One nun, Sister Genevieve Kunkel, felt hope was the clue to inner joy. She said, "If you hope, you cope. If you don't, you mope."
