Happiness Is What?....

The concept of ideology is a common idea on a subject matter relating to the "norm" of social life or politics etc.. Sitting here thinking about this the life of a successful career, a house with a white picket fence and a house filled with a husband/wife and 2.5 kids are all ideas of how we should live out our lives to be truly happy and successful not just in our careers but what society calls a "great life". But where did this concept come from and why is it that this although we now know there are many ways of achieving a "great life" that we still strive to have this fantasy of a perfect American dream. I know for myself, I know that this is not exactly what I want for myself with the white picket fence and so forth but I believe that everyone's version of the American dream all stems form the same original concept that the hierarchy of our society has pushed on us. So will this thought of the American dream change? I don't think it will anytime soon completely but there is already a little change of this concept already, which means no one set of ideas are concrete and unchanging if we really want a difference we can have one we just have to express these difference and make a new concept of ideology.
