Here’s the takeaway: “most miserable” is a title nobody wants. But it’s also a snapshot. Countries change. Afghanistan could become a happier place in 20 years if things shift. Unlikely? Sure. But not impossible.
In the meantime, let’s hold onto our small joys. The laughter in a café, the sun on your face, the fact that your currency still buys groceries. These are luxuries for half the world.
So finish your coffee. Hug a friend. And maybe send some kindness to a place that’s having a rougher day than you. We’re all in this weird, messy, sometimes-miserable world together.
