If we only wanted to be happy, it would be easy; but we want to be happier than other people, and that is almost always difficult, since we think them happier than they are.

Actually a quite shallow analysis in my humble opinion😅
Curious to hear your take?
I just cannot relate to the statement that I would want to be HAPPIER than others. Very alien concept in my world view. I am who I am and others are what they are. None of my business.
The American dream is the pursuit of happiness, and as it appears, gringos have lost their way.
Easy way home
