See what happens to your "happiness" when one of your children is sick and you can't afford a doctor.
Being an ignorant kid and not knowing you are poor does not equal "happy". Misery as normalcy is not happiness.
100 years ago, just about 50 percent of the American population lived on farms. Backbreaking work from sunup to sundown. No tractors to help relieve the labor, either. Horse plowing. That's hard work. Imagine half the country still doing that today and tell me we'd all be happier.

again with the money equaling happiness. You know, I would be glad to trade places with one of those farmers. Gettings up at dawn and retiring at dusk to a half full table I can hardly afford-sounds like an ideal image to me and no joke. I think the less things I own the happier I will be. No worries, just living for moment. You may think Im crazy, but you should try it sometime-just selling your stuff, getting on a bike and living on the road. leather tramps, rubber tramps, any way you take it its a perfect life
