Being human, especially in today's day.

It's so funny because we're emotionally psychologically advancing so fast that we now realize that being a human is such a nuanced experience.

And yet we still spend most of our precious time trying to decipher what's right and what's wrong.

Should I do this or should I do that?

Should I stay or should I go? As if there is a 100% correct answer for any of those questions when they're so not. Why are we so afraid of

gray areas? Why are we so afraid that two things can be true? We were talking about happiness the other day here in my family unit.

And we were like humans, it's biologically ingrained in us to constantly feel happy.

But is that normal?

Should you feel happy and content every waking moment? I don't think so because if you did,

you wouldn't know what happiness is. Happiness can only be defined if you felt the opposite.

Just like you know what sadness feels like. You wouldn't know what it feels like to be sad

if you've never been happy and you wouldn't know how to be sad if you've never been happy. And you wouldn't know how to be

happy if you've never felt sad. Right? And so we've just been asking ourselves over here, like,

what is it? What does happiness mean? We asked my mom, we're at my mom's house, her farmhouse,

and southern Indiana, sweet home Midwest. And she's retired. She owns her house. She bought it

in cash. It's a tiny old, Amish-built farmhouse from a hundred years ago. And she gardens all day.

And she still struggles with mental health and feeling depressed sometimes or having no energy and we're like, well,

mom, you've, you've traveled the world. You've lived on welfare and really didn't know how you

were going to make ends meet. And then you've been really abundant, making a six-figure salary,

traveling to Italy for work. I mean, this woman has had a very colorful life.

And so we asked her, you know, you've had it all.

When are you most happy?
