We must be some masterful incredibly endowed manufacturers indeed in presuming ability to “make” someone happy. It is futile to think we can. It is destructive to attempt it. It is foolish to *invest* anything *of value* in the effort.

So, no. We are unable, absolutely, to manufacture happiness for another.

Yet we can do a lot. We could drop complaint and negativity altogether and become delighted and happy and contented with the little things (as a prelude to big things). Thus, we could just that easily show a living example of that which it is futile to presume we can make.
