Summary

The quote suggests that there may be individuals who are naturally predisposed to being unhappy from birth, implying a biological or genetic component to one's disposition. However, the speaker rejects this notion and instead asserts that they and their sister were born with an innate ability and determination to maintain constant happiness. By considering themselves as potential outliers or anomalies in possessing this capacity, the speaker humorously concludes with a resigned "hi ho," implying acceptance of their uniqueness.
