Thank you. I learned a new word: Eudaemonia (also spelled eudaimonia) is an ancient Greek word meaning human flourishing, well-being, and living well. It combines the roots eu ("good") and daimon ("spirit" or "divine power"). Rather than a temporary emotional state like joy or pleasure, it describes a lifelong state of realizing one's true potential and acting with good character.
Yes! I love that the word encompasses more than just "happiness" or living an easy life. It's about living a life oriented toward growth and fulfillment. Ease rarely brings that orientation.
