No Reason to be Unhappy
Whether
we are suffering at present or have suffered in the past, there is no
reason to be unhappy. If we can remedy it, then why be unhappy? And if
we cannot, there's no use in being unhappy about it—it's just one more
thing to be unhappy about, which serves no purpose at all.
