“There are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degrees of health and wealth and the other comforts of life, one becomes happy, the other becomes miserable. This arises from their different ways in which they consider things, persons and events, and the resulting effects upon their minds.”
Different people choose different perspectives to look at things. People tend to have different likes and dislikes because they have different characteristics or personalities which make them evaluate same things differently. Health and wealth are valuable but not all which makes them take different proportions in various people. For some people, the ratio may be one hundred percent. For others, the ratio may be 50%. It depends on what kind of people they are which will determine their respective priorities.
In my opinion, first and foremost, although these two kinds of people have equal degrees of health and wealth as well as the other comforts of life, the one feeling happy must be optimistic and easily satisfied with the current conditions. The one feeling unhappy may be because the wealth and health are not exactly the things that could bring him/her the pleasure he/she needs. Second, the happy ones are more likely to value what they have and tend to enjoy,they may think life is full of enjoyment which is enough for them to be happy. While for those unhappy ones, they may get tired of such enjoyment which could bring them less and less pleasure and enjoyment. Or there may be still things under-achieve which are the things that would make them truly pleasant and satisfied. Third, the happy ones are more likely to live a life with few changes, and they may favor stability rather than volatility. The unhappy ones are more likely to try new things and start new journey which will possibly bring him more pleasure than solely enjoying the health and wealth.
In conclusion, people view things differently which is a natural result of their characteristics and personalities. Such difference will determine their behaviors and their logic of treating people and things around him, and the different treatment will be revealed when it comes to health and wealth.
