Age, education, experience and their positive correlation with the speed of happiness drainage

When I was little I remember being surrounded by other people who always started their sentences with wow! cool! and phrases that denote their happiness with life....

but now most people, when asked how they are doing they are only relaying the unhappiness in their lives, and the negativities they see in other people.

I wonder it it's because they just don't see the good stuff or if it's just that they don't care for it and find it easier to complain; and in a sense derive their joy from negativity. Ironic as it may seem, perhaps these people look for happiness in the amounts others can spare for them through getting other people's sympathies... They neglect the fact that happiness can be created from scratch, from themselves and and radiate to others achieving a greater overall magnitude and continuity.

People say that those who only talk about how wonderful everything is are naive... but I beg to differ, it's not because they don't see the bad things, but because they choose to let the good overshine the rest. That's it. I think that is the secret to happiness... see both sides, but reflect the good things, emphasize them, pass it on and infect those around you. It's so easy, but so hard for most people!

For those of you who see beauty in everything, don't change, you are truly refreshing.
