Ignite Baltimore #6

Darryl Tarver

The Pursuit of Happiness

Where does true happiness come from? In other words, what makes people truly happy? And to what extent do the values which we put forth in America align with this fundamental human motive?

My presentation will touch on different conceptions of happiness within the context of American culture. I will use facts and figures to determine what effects social, economic, material, and environmental factors have on happiness, and how happy and unhappy people affect the people around them. Finally, I will present a brief testimonial about my own headway en route to happiness, as well as encouraging each member of the audience to embark on his or her own path.
