Nice, but still not the point.

Oh but contrar. It is very much the point.

I suppose it could be true for people who don't want anything more than they have or don't want to work hard to better their lives. That's not the world I live in.

Do you honestly think a poor person can't be happy? Money does not bring happiness.

No it doesn't but it can sure help !

Seriously? You've never heard of people saying this? Throughout history many poor have said they lacked in materials things but neverless they WERE HAPPY? Grandmas and Grandpas have always claimed this anomaly. At least mine have. The art of being happy does not have anything to do with being poor or rich.

@151949 Aren't you glad you posted. If you had said "The sky is blue," someone would try to argue.....

So true, girl!

Struggled as a single parent for years. Your child wants new shoes or a new jacket and it's out of the question.

Juggling food, rent, car repairs. Yep, don't fret. Just be happy!

Yeah, I'm sure people who are homeless or can't feed their children or don't where their next meal is coming from are just jumping for joy and praying that things never change for them...because....they are just so darn happy!
