a Right to be Unhappy?


Wouldn't you agree that everybody has the "right to be happy"? But the question I wanna know is if everybody has the "right to be unhappy".


Why are people who seem to "have it all" still unhappy? Perhaps to the point that some of them even commit suicide. (e.g. Kurt Cobain)


It somehow reminded me of Maslow's hierarchy of needs.

Could it be that the higher needs are fulfilled, but not the more basic needs on the bottom of the hierarchy? If the lower needs are not fulfilled, does any of the higher needs mean anything?
