I do love this quote from #JaneAusten, "I must learn to brook being happier than I deserve," it resonates with me, but also causes me to reflect again on the notion of "deserve" within a Protestant Ethic (read capitalist moral system); whether "deserve" deserves any structural place within a notion of #happiness, building a idea happiness based rather on the notion of building lived life no matter what the parameters of one's life are.
