We are in the middle of dramatic changes and transitions, which challenge our very sense of happiness today. How can we resolve our increasing conflict and divisions? With a long civilization stretching 5,000 years, Chinese today go back to history to seek answers, for example from Confucius, one of the most respected ancient Chinese philosophers. Confucius argued that happiness stemmed from seeking joy in our relationships with family, friends and the community.
