Some People Appear To Be Happy, But They Simply Don't Give The Matter Much Thought. Others Make Plans: I'm Going To Have A Husband, A Home, Two Children, A House In The Country. As Long As They're Busy Doing That, They're Like Bulls Looking For The Bullfighter: They React Instinctively, They Blunder On, With No Idea Where The Target Is. They Get Their Car, Sometimes They Even Get A Ferrari, And They Think That's The Meaning Of Life, And They Never Question It. Yet Their Eyes Betray The Sadness That Even They Don't Know They Carry In Their Soul. Are You Happy?
