I wasn’t happy with my height

I wasn’t happy with my weight

I wasn't happy with my skin

I want happy with my kin.


I wasn’t happy with my look

I wasn’t happy that I wasn’t a crook.

I wasn’t happy with my education

I wasn't happy with my vacation. 


I wasn’t happy with my car

I wasn't happy that in life I didn't travel far. 

I wasn't happy with my spouse

I wasn't happy with my two bedroom house. 


I wasn't happy with my health

I wasn't happy with my wealth.

I wasn't happy that I didn't have much choice

I wasn't happy that I often lost my poise.


I wasn't happy that in life I couldn't get fame. 

I wasn't happy that I was an ordinary player in the life game. 

I wasn't happy that I wasn't a genius

I wasn't happy nobody took me serious. 


I wasn't happy that I didn't win the rat race. 

I wasn't happy that I became an also ran in the race. 

I wasn’t happy to realize my reality

I wasn’t happy that I didn’t feel better after a cup of tea.


I wasn’t happy with hot weather I can't bear

I wasn’t happy excessive excise duty can’t chill with a beer.

I wasn't happy with the pot holes filled road

I wasn't happy with the municipality repair mode. 


I wasn't happy I go breathless with air pollution. 

I wasn't happy that we can't find a solution. 

I wasn't happy that with the government can't get anything done without corruption. 

At the municipality office when asked for a bribe I get into eruption. 


I wasn't happy that I can't find to walk a foot path decent

I wasn't happy that footpath was broken or under encroachment. 

I wasn't happy with the caste or religious differentiation

I wasn't happy that the division is increasing leaps and bounds in our nation. 


I wasn't happy in life with its messiness

I wasn't happy with my unhappiness. 

Finally when I learnt that my country ranked low in the happiness index

I became happy that I wasn't alone in my unhappiness.
