I guess I think happiness can come in a bunch of forms, and maybe a marriage with tons of work makes people feel happy. But part of me still thinks ... is it really so hard to make it work? What happened to being pals?
Mindy Kaling explores the multifaceted nature of happiness in her book, "Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?". She reflects on the complexities of relationships, particularly marriage, suggesting that true happiness can stem from various efforts and different dynamics. Kaling questions whether the hard work involved in maintaining these relationships overshadow the initial joy and companionship.
She raises a thought-provoking point about the essence of friendship in marriage, pondering what might have changed over time. Kaling seems to long for a simpler understanding of connection that fosters happiness without excessive strain, inviting readers to consider how friendships evolve into romantic partnerships.
