I think this book should have been called Stumbling on Humility, cause what I took from it is that I'm not even as happy as I thought I was, and really, I didn't think I was that happy to begin with. So, I get it, our perception is flawed. Our ability to remember, perceive and predict is not well developed. I have thought of this book and brought it up in conversation quite a bit because either a)it has a lot of real life applications or b) I'm kind of obsessed with the subject of happiness. I will say that I think he used the term happiness in a lot of scenarios when I would have used pleasure. It has been a long time since I thought a piece of pie or a new couch or sex with an attractive partner would make me happy. They give me pleasure, but to make me happy, I'd need to make the pie and share it, have some company on that couch or find intimacy with someone I have a connection with (aka my awesome husband). I found it kind of annoying that Gilbert didn't distinguish.
