&quot;When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down &#039;happy&#039;. They told me I didn&#039;t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn&#039;t understand life.&quot;
