[QUOTE="Ouachita, post: 1162680, member: 16802"] I do believe this is true, to a degree. I have noticed that some folks who seem to be so carefree and happy all the time are also below average intelligence. The saying "Ignorance is Bliss" applies. On the flip side, it appears to me that folks who experience bouts of sadness and/or chronic depression are above average intelligence. I think there is link here we can't ignore. When I went through a divorce 19 years ago I experience a great emptiness I can't explain. I'll never forget my mother telling me that was a good thing, a good sign. She said a persons capacity for happiness was equally proportional to their capacity for despair. I reckon what she was trying to say is that I had bottomed out, but that present condition was because I had similar, and equal, "top out" Sounds like by polar to me, but after that time in my life I pay much more attention to those around me. Seems like folks that care the most are also the ones that can be hurt the most. [/QUOTE]
