Everyone's life has a certain degree of complexity. Sometimes issues, demands, and desires stress us out to the most difficult degree possible. Life impedes happiness by blowing up small demands into large ones, and by letting little demands proliferate seemingly while we sleep.
I have seen people thrown into depression, or literally crushed down by such burdens. I have seen this among my friends, and in my colleagues. I have witnessed it among my students, and have felt it in my own simple life. "There is not enough money; there is too little time; I need this now; why aren't you listening to me; etc. etc. etc." And life goes on. And we are free to exhale -- and live another day.
