ما يسميه بعضهم لحظات سعادة مثل قدوم مولود، أو نجاح ابن، أو شفاء مريض، أو لحظة انتصار، أو وقفة تكريم وثناء واعتراف بفضل، أو تحقيق إنجاز واكتشاف؛ يرى آخرون أنها لحظات سرور وفرح لا ينبغي أن يوصف صاحبها بالسعادة؛ لأن السعادة. كما يرون. أكثر ثباتاً ودوامًا وشمولاً. فما هي السعادة وما حقيقتها ؟ وهل هي الغاية القصوى للإنسان ؟ وهل هي موضوعية أم ذاتية ؟ وما هي مقوماتها ووسائلها وخصائصها ؟ وهل هي ممكنة ؟ وهل يمكن أن توجد كاملة صافية ؟
