Summary

This quote highlights the fact that material comforts alone cannot guarantee true happiness. It suggests that external circumstances, no matter how pleasant, cannot shield individuals from the inherent suffering and hardships that life can bring.

Happiness, therefore, seems to be influenced not only by external conditions but also by one's ability to navigate and cope with difficult situations.
