X : You talk about happiness a lot.
Me : It is important to at least aim to be happy. This can be via contentment or what you do or a mix of both.
X : So, do what makes you happy?
Me : As much as possible.
X : What if it doesn't make you happy.
Me : Then do something else.

X : Shouldn't you fix what makes you unhappy?
Me : Of course, if it's within your power to do so. But if it was then you'd have already done that. Probably.
X : So, just do something else?
Me : That sounds a pretty reasonable assumption.
X : Why probably?

Me : Sometimes people can get trapped in a mindset or a culture of an apathetic victim i.e. you could change it if you want but you don't really want to, you in fact want to be the victim. It's almost like a form of munchausen syndrome. I occasionally see this within groups ...
... it's not really a bunker mentality, as in a coming together to fight the odds against a foe and it's not a willingness to consciously trade control for something else. It's more a desire to be the victim, to have something to gripe against, to not take responsibility.
