Human flourishing or well-being; the highest human good according to Aristotle, achieved through a life of virtue and reason.
Explanation
Often translated as 'happiness,' eudaimonia is better understood as living well and doing well. It is not a momentary feeling but the overall quality of a complete life. Aristotle argued that eudaimonia requires virtuous activity, practical wisdom, and some external goods.
I live among shadows and broken certainties. I speak little, I think too much. Each text is a failed attempt to translate what I can't even fully feel.
