I think “euphoric” is the same as “hedonic.”

He was discussing “eudaimonic” happiness, and basically was pushing folks towards that.

It’s a web ‘zine for folks near retirement, so it’s basically, saying “play golf,” or “putter about in the workshop,” to stretch some stereotypes.

Me, I’m definitely a “putter about in the workshop” kind of guy. Seems to do the trick for me.

[EDIT] Added “about” to “putter in the workshop.”

I was struggling to figure out the relationship of working on a putter in a workshop if you were not playing golf.

THEN I realized you were not talking about a putter.

Good point.

You can tell I don’t play golf.

I tweaked it.
