Now since we’ ve learned to adapt to new standards which we’ ve created for ourselves, we find that we have less time, less patience, less sleep, which leads to more stress and more anxiety. Therefore, don’ t stupidly make a conclusion that happiness is just based on “ things” . Sometimes, we trade our lives for not only basic necessities, but for excessive items and services as well.
