"We begin then, with the basic premise that the purpose of our life is to seek happiness. It is a vision of happiness as a real objective, one that we can take positive steps toward achieving…We will learn how the search for happiness offers benefits not only for the individual but for the individual's family and for society at large as well."

It is my belief that the
environmental portrait can be revealing. Images can present and represent something from the
essence of each of us, stirring up, catching, and defining
a part of what it is to be human. We
are each other.
