This reading seemed kind of negative toward humans, but it seemed to be very positive about God. It does not make sense to think that way though if you believe that God created humans. If he created something that you do not like then it would make sense for you to have a problem with the way God did it, and not with the creation itself. They seemed to think that God was so much better than the humans, yet he created them so in a way mankind is a recreation of God. It is nice to think that a way to be close to God is to bring joy to anothers heart. A lot of these readings do not talk very much about happiness, but i think that most people are just searching for true happiness. It is a great thing to desire, but it is so difficult to reach. Most people never really find true happiness, or true love. I wish that everyone could find this, but people seem all too happy to just settle. I think everyone deserves to be happy and loved. People just need to brush off the little things and they need to search for what will truely fulfill them. Sometimes it is so simple, but people just do not take the time to find it.
