It is all about perception – you can buy a bigger house, the one you always wanted but still focus on feeling sad for selling the old one which holds so many dear memories. Or as a time to be more with your kids, rest or learn something new for some next job that comes along. Or you can see this as an opportunity to finally pursue your dreams and do things you really feel passionate about, something that will fill your heart and give you a purpose. Let’s say you lose your job: you can choose to be desperate, angry and frustrated or try and shift your perspective and start seeing things from another angle: maybe you didn’t like that job to start with but you were not enough of a risk-taker to quit. Happiness starts with your perception of things Unless they change their perspective and see the camels and fishing tools as something exotic they would never in a lifetime be able to see if it weren’t for poorly addressed shipments. If we were to send camels to the Eskimo and fishing tool to the Bedouin, beside the poor camels dying in the cold and the Bedouin not being able to catch anything in the sand with the fishing gear, they would both probably be quite miserable. An Eskimo needs fishing as a tool to survive and the Bedouin needs camels. If we compare an Eskimo and a Bedouin we will see that their perspective on happiness is quite different and a big part of that has to do with nature itself. But there is also a big tint to our perspective that is not socially imposed but is a result of natural circumstances.
