Serious questions.

I know there are a lot of smart and happy people out there, but do you think it’s possible to be too smart… to be happy?  Like, you think too critically about everything, you’re keen to the bullshit, and in general, you pay attention to things that other people are able to ignore, making for less enjoyable experiences? 

I don’t think I’m a genius by any stretch of the imagination, but I do have a bad habit of overanalyzing everything which usually includes the possible outcomes and when I don’t like the possible outcomes then I don’t partake, which actually ends up with me not partaking in a lot.  Too cautious, or something.  Maybe I’m confusing cautious with smarts. 

This makin’ any sense?
