Hi Rosana, I loved this whole post but especially the last two paragraphs, where you bring up "the broken knob" from "It's a wonderful life". Wanting and appreciating what I have is a big part of my happiness. It takes some extra work in our part to realize that, though. Unfortunately, now a days with social media, a lot of people compare their happiness with what's out there and that is a big mistake, in my opinion. As you stated it in your post, no knob is the same, we need to learn how to appreciate and be thankful for our unique knob. Thank you for sharing.

Measuring and pursuing happiness as a nation might make more sense than measure and pursuing individual happiness?
