Original Goodness - Fact or Fiction?

Marking the International Day of Happiness

 

You’re only human, sins of the fathers, original sin- these concepts have infiltrated our consciousness to explain our flaws. But whenever we smile, help another or think a happy thought, our bodies respond with health and happiness inducing chemicals.  Goodness feels good, so perhaps we should explore a new human narrative about our divine nature and origins, which despite appearances has never truly abandoned us.
