Eudaimonia
1. It's not a goal, not a point to reach, but a mode of living.
2. It's not a feeling, but an activity.
3. It's moderate in the sense that it combines doing the (morally) good thing and being in a state of freedom. Life truly flourishes and expresses itself. It's healthier than the ascetic attitude of merely striving for the good despite tortures. Of course, it is always a question today what is the morally good thing.
