Why aren't People Happy?

I have noticed...people who have the most number of problems in life are the happiest looking people! Whatever problems they have they are happy. The ones who have everything at their disposal are always sulking or complaining about something or the other.



The other day, I met one aunty whose son was mentally handicapped, her brother was also mentally handicapped and her husband has a heart problem and one can never say anything about his health.

She manages the whole household and never complained once! She is always smiling and singing songs and making others smile.

There's another person (can't tell wo she is) who has everything one can ask for.....three loving sons each has his own house in some part of the country so she doesn't have the problem of accomodation. Her husband is retd. Chief Engineer and has lot of money coming in also through music classes she gives. Still she is always cribbing about getting blouse pieces instead of sarees and what not. No one likes to talk to her because of this. But since she is elderly, no one can say no.

I'd like to ask if any one knows why a human being is like this?......they don't appreciate the value of any thing.
