Up close and personal with Horton Tower aka Sturt's Folly. There is speculation that the tower was originally built by Humphrey Sturt as an observatory and then defaulted to use as effectively a hunting lodge. Neither use would require a tower of this height and girth and one should bear in consideration that Mr Sturt submerged an entire village for his own edification. Which leads to the inevitable conclusion that this tower was constructed to meet the 18th century folly builders main objective - namely showing off to his mates.

I often hear people say things such as, "God just wants you to be happy" or "Just do what makes you happy."
_
First off related to the idea that "God just wants you to be happy"...quite frankly God is more concerned about your salvation and your holiness thanks to Christ, rather than your happiness. Yes, He does want you to experience joy which is a spiritual gift and lasting and don't get me wrong as happiness isn't bad either, but, happiness is temporary and subjective. In other words, happiness is a moving target and as what makes one person happy may not make the another person happy.
_
For instance, you may feel happy when you eat your favorite foods or experience an activity. (ok, I'm a guy so I tend to relate to food but you get the point lol) Our happiness isn't guaranteed.
_
Secondly, related to the "do what makes you happy" idea is something that can be a slippery slope because you can take that statement or idea too far. People do things all the time that make them "happy" but can and do lead to destruction as it falls well outside of God's Word and will!
_
Furthermore, as I read through the pages of the scripture, it's not like He wants you to be unhappy or miserable but His goal for you again, isn't your happiness.
_
If you are in Christ, what makes you happy should be found within the boundaries of God's Word and will...not just what feels right to you. Doing His will and doing things His way should result in joy as He is our joy and strength and it should also result in happiness too but in this case a more lasting happiness.
_
At the end of the day, happiness is temporal but joy in and from The Lord is eternal so don't get confused by what the culture promotes but instead dive into God's Word to do some true fact checking on happiness for yourself from the truth of God's Word. True joy is found in a personal relationship with Jesus!
_
I pray that we will focus on filling our lives with the joy that is found in Him alone and as a result we will will experience true happiness in the process.
_
For your edification, Read Proverbs 14:12, Nehemiah 8:10, Galatians 5:22-23 and more.
