- Oh, that's easy. "human flourishing" comes from the ancient greek concept of "eudaimonia" which translates as "pleasure that is officially approved by philosophers."
- If you can start a sentence with "every human being deserves to experience... and then end the sentence with a straight face, it's human flourishing. Love, compassion, beauty, truth, the sublime.
