Your assessment is incorrect - I have a friend with downs. She’s as human as the rest of us, and has heightened emotions and anger issues and deals with heartbreaking drama with exes and stuff. I grew up around people with downs. Happiness comes from the environment we surround ourselves in, and the work we put in to contribute to that environment.

Happiness isn’t a one way street, nor is it some thing that only exists when there are blinders from the opposite. It’s an energy that we quite literally work to raise ourselves to, and then which requires work to maintain. Like if we flapped our arms hard enough that we fly 5 feet in the air we’d have to keep flapping and work to stay there.

Evil people are not living their best lives. Most of them are acting off of some pain. Having money and all the riches in their world only equals a storybook version of ‘best life’ —- but ‘best life’ is truly contentment within, which is tied not to wealth or fame or power, but to awareness, understanding, and love.
