It's all Kree's Fault

Sadness really is the most pointless of human emotions. It accomplishes nothing. It changes nothing. At best, it gives us something to gauge "happy' by, and personally I would be satisfied if we only ran the gamut from "happy" to "ecstatic" so we wouldn't need to dip into the well of "sad" to give "happy" meaning.

Evolutionary-wise, I'm surprised those with the trait to be sad didn't die out ages ago.

"Gronk, go find Kree, it is time to hunt."
"Kree say he not come. He sad."
"Ha! Suck to be Kree. He starve."

Or worse yet, Gronk could be a sensitive, new age caveman, and stay behind to cheer Kree up thereby depriving the tribe of two hunters. Most likely they'd both starve.

I can't tell you how much time I've wasted being sad. Time that could have been better spent doing something to make me happy, and with luck, maybe even ecstatic.

Just my luck I have a little Kree in my family tree.
