I am not sure what this Index ranking is all about, not sure of what measure they use to reach their findings, I doubt they can even tell Botswana from Rwanda or Kazakhstan. But still every year they keep releasing these standings declaring us unhappy again and again. I will speak for myself; I am hardly ever unhappy, not to say I am a happy-go-merry person, I just don’t waste my time being unhappy and miserable. Because most of the time the cause of unhappiness is usually the other person. I long swore never to let another human being be the source of my unhappiness. Some people become big-headed when they think they have an upper hand on you.
I take challenging situations head on; if I cannot contain the situation then I just let go and let nature take its course. Life goes on, monkey or no monkey on my back.
