# Well-being Well-being is the state of existing well. ## Meaning Well-being is the real state, not the score. A well-being score is an estimate of [[Well-being|well-being]]. Well-being can be explored through the [[Dimensions Of Well-being]]. Joe's public well-being work is currently organized through [[The Well-being System]]. Well-being is being compared across sources through well-being meaning comparison. ## Source Of Meaning This note is grounded in the Joe-Codex ontology conversation from 2026-06-19, where Joe named well-being as the core value and defined it as the state of existing well. ## Relationship Over Time This note should remain central while Joe learns how to measure, improve, and communicate well-being more clearly. ## Links - [[Being]] - [[The Well-being System]] - [[Well-being System Project Map]] - [[Well-being System Components]] - [[Being Well]] - [[Being Unwell]] - [[Health]] - [[Dimensions Of Well-being]] - [[Good]] - [[Bad]] - [[Source Of Meaning]] ## Tensions Well-being may be momentary, whole-life, measurable, experiential, personal, and relational at once. ## Question Do you mean momentary feeling, whole-life condition, or both?
