One insight from @jon_rauch’s “The Happiness Curve” is that all happiness is relative (it’s not enough for me to be successful, I have to get ahead of others). This reminded me of @JonahNRO’s “Suicide of The West.” We live in this amazing place and time, yet we don’t feel happy.

There's a lack of gratitude for the good in our everyday existence in the West. We forget to marvel at the good, at kindness, at love, at the sheer miracle of our existence.

I agree! Every morning I seek out three things around me for which I am grateful, i.e. sidewalks, hot shower, public transportation. This puts a wiggle in my step, a smile on my face, and a sparkle in my eye.

That's the only way to be. We should all do more of this!
