Or does it?
These past few weeks I've noticed that many people from my childhood and high school days have been complaining a lot about how bad their lives are. I feel sorry for them, to a degree. With exceptions, sometimes if your life is abysmal and terrible for a prolonged period of time it is your fault. Remember the person who always complains about how drama filled their life is? Looking back, don't you want to say "Well stop creating it then?"
Obviously I truly hope that no one has a prolonged period of hardship, anger, sadness or misery. Life can be short, but it can also be very long and very difficult.
But let's get some perspective here. What we in the first world call "miserable" a large, large portion of the world would literally be in awe of. Prospective is like experience. Once you acquire it, it's often too late.
