There's more to life than being happy

Someone shared this article on Facebook and I found it an immensely refreshing viewpoint on the pursuit of happiness.
"But happiness cannot be pursued; it must ensue. One must have a reason to 'be happy." 
"Being human always points, and is directed, to something or someone, other than oneself -- be it a meaning to fulfill or another human being to encounter. The more one forgets himself -- by giving himself to a cause to serve or another person to love -- the more human he is."
I'm going to have to find Victor Frankl's book. Hurhur.
