      <title>Starting Caring Valley</title>
      <link>https://922f5ee2.cvn-f5j.pages.dev/posts/starting-caring-valley/</link>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;For years, I’ve thought about what truly makes people happier. Since happiness is a state of mind, it comes down to two possibilities—either people &lt;strong&gt;don’t have worries&lt;/strong&gt;, or they &lt;strong&gt;deeply believe there’s no need to worry&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;If someone doesn’t have worries, it likely means that all their necessities are met - including basic ones like food, shelter, security. If they believe they don’t need to worry, they may have &lt;strong&gt;faith in a higher power&lt;/strong&gt; or a &lt;strong&gt;strong sense of trust in life&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;One day, as I was thinking about what makes people happy, it struck me that people would be happy if they had all their necessities met. &lt;span class=&#34;dark-blue f4&#34;&gt;So, I asked an AI agent:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;blockquote&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;what are the basic necessities for humans?&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class=&#34;dark-blue f4&#34;&gt;This is what it told me:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
