They believe that other people have better DNA or happiness genes or something, but that they themselves are missing a critical chromosome.

In other words, you were meant to win. You were created for joy. "

Adults don't know all, and what they do know, they often won't tell you- because they've got their own agendas, or because they want to shield you from the hard truths " for your own good." Adults lie, they betray, they screw up in every way possible... "
