Jack, that's the downside of being too aware of all the cr@p. You're split between being depressed about the insane world around you, and being secretly hopeful that it's not really as bad as you know it is.
But, it is.
You know it. I know it. The smart ones amongst us know it. The ones with eyes and a brain to interpret what we see, know it.
And you know what? That's your answer. Take a bow. Give yourself a pat on the back, (because nobody else will). Forget about obsessing about "happiness". Happiness is that unreliable state of mind that only the truly simple-minded, uninformed, and unenlightened ever experience.
You.... get it. You probably wish you didn't, but you do. It's depressing, but at least you're not one of the ignorant.
I think what you really want to do is to make some impact on the cr@p, somehow. Right? Up to you how you go about that.
