Male Role Programmed UnHappiness

That’s a mouthful. Male role programmed unhappiness. That’s to say it’s an inherent component on the male role that men be unhappy.

Unhappy men are going to want more, work harder, buy more, spend more, consume more. Does anyone think this country was built by happy men? Our founders were unhappy and that’s what pushed them to come here.

The problem is we are trapped in our pursuit of happiness because we never are happy just more or less unhappy. It’s all we know. Less unhappy feels better. In a way it’s like happier. But it’s not happy. It’s not enduring. Instead we find we are enduring unhappy. Stuck. Not finding the way out.
