Simplified Meaning:
People work hard for various reasons, but the ultimate goal is to be happy. For example, someone might pick a job they love, even if it doesn't pay the most, because it brings them joy every day. When we choose to spend time with family or friends, it's because it makes us feel good. Even when we save money, it's so we can use it later for things that make us happy, like traveling or buying something we want. If you focus on what truly makes you happy, you'll find more meaning and satisfaction in your day-to-day life. This means making decisions that lead to your personal happiness, rather than just doing things for the sake of doing them.
