thanks for sharing this on #pypt

I had to come back a day later to give this a good read. And a good read it was! Very well written and the content resonates with me a lot...

But, I'm really missing the substance here and it feels like you're just overstating the obvious, the economic paradigms we have created and environmental toxicity, both social and physical, are really just the easy scapegoats...

Happiness and sadness are states of mind. [...] Where is the finish line of this pursuit?

I would assume there is no finish line! Evolution has created our minds to be able to create incredibly complex yet profoundly simple concepts of "happiness" and "sadness", and just as all life makes use of an energy gradient somewhere, so does our mind!

Maybe we, as a society, are suffering for a reason? It's the perpetual up and down, from abundance to scarcity, tipping the scales to eternally struggle in finding a balance!
