When I started reading the Communication Arts article Learning to Be Happy, I had not expected to leave it with a huge smile on my face. Personally, it was because the author, DK Holland, was able to hit on so many points about technology, language, education, culture, and even religion, that I couldn’t help but to be tickled to a sense of joy about the core goals for MMM.

I’d wager that some of you might find similar reasons to smile after reading this – even if there are points in this piece that you don’t agree with. To be challenged to take ownership of the implications of technology and culture is how we truly learn to be happy. And then what you do with what you own… well, that is a story we well know which has its own set of results.
