Addition:
A Happiness Study found what made extremely happy people differ from the rest of us? it turns out, The one way in which they differ: they're extremely social. They don't sit in seminars on Saturday morning. They don't spend time alone. Each of them is in a romantic relationship, and each has a rich repertoire of friends.

And being Social is not trash parties every night or using alcohol to hide anxiety, but those with warm connections with others. This is why I am hosting this Social Lunch event.
