#Quality of Life

Quality of life is the modern absurd metric meant to measure personal happiness yet defined by social media likes and an array of luxury gadgets. Ideally, it signifies mental and physical well-being, but in reality it becomes a comparison contest of vacation photos and pay stubs. Experts and consultants idealize the concept, while ordinary people exhaust themselves chasing the gap through endless consumption. The very QOL meant to visualize happiness has transformed into authorization for stress and a license to worry more. It's ironic that society values survey results over the solace of a simple houseplant.
