Ockham’s razor… the simplest answer is often right
Look for amusing stories… you find them.

Look for reasons to be sad… you find them too
(and reasons to be cranky, pissy, upset, etc).
Look for people (and things) you love… you find them.
Look for reasons to complain… you find them.
Or they find you.
Look for reasons to live… you find them.
Any day, from any angle.

And don’t just look once. Look every day.
You’ll find what you’re looking for — be it happiness, sadness, whateverness.
We don’t know the truth about this world. Reality might be vastly different than what we see. So, we might as well enjoy it here — because good creates more good. It takes a lot more effort and energy to be sad than to be happy.
Sometimes the questions are complicated
and the answers are simple.
