Your life is a long hallway, with thousands if not millions of doors. Some are wide open. Some are closed, but could be opened with a little effort. Some are locked and barred. What’s behind each door is different.
Everyone has different doors that are open, closed, or locked. Some people have many more closed doors than others, and that isn’t fair, but it is what it is.
No matter what someone’s hallways looks like, there will always be some people who insist on bashing their heads against the locked doors, convinced that what’s behind them is utopia. Sight unseen.
The secret to a happy life is exploring the open or openable doors until you find one you like, and walking through it.
