    Interestingly, lowering your expectations is a great way to be happier. Many people have heard of keeping up with the Joneses. That is the same thing. If you can be happy with what you have, your life will be better, even if you have little.

    I’m living in an underdeveloped country at the moment, and most people are content, despite not having anything. They have community and relationships, but not things, and not always food. My family and I have learnt a lot from the local Ni-Van people

    I get the premise of the joke, but don’t discount it.
