The Human Third Age opus 125

It has been studied that older humans are basically happier than the younger.
Why is this true? Older humans look at a limited time span
And are more content with what they have and have accomplished
Than the younger set, who are concerned about an unknown, long future,
Where they have much less control.
This principle needs teaching to the older generation,
Who could occasionally be boosted by a 'futurist' shot in the arm,
And to the younger, who need to calm themselves,
By living sometimes in the comforting, occasional 'Now'.
