Enthusiasm Rules his inner world. Determination Rules his outer world. Therefore Happiness has become His real name.
Interpretation
Happiness stems from inner enthusiasm and outer determination.
This quote by Sri Chinmoy emphasizes the idea that true happiness is achieved through an enthusiastic spirit that governs one's inner thoughts, combined with a determination that drives external actions. When a person cultivates positive energy within and pursues their goals with resolve, they can ultimately find lasting happiness, which becomes their essence or 'real name'.

We'd just shared the last beer and slung the empty can out the window at a stop sign and were just waiting back to get the feel of the day, swimming in that kind of tasty drowsiness that comes over you after a day of going hard at something you enjoy doing -- half sunburned and half drunk and keeping awake only because you wanted to savor the taste as long as you could.
