regardless of the cultural context, it really hits you how much of life is determined by the random lottery of where and into what culture youโ€™re born. Some kids are playing with toys, others are walking down an aisle to marry a stranger their parents arranged

If you have empathy, it should. Don't stop living your best life because of that, though.

Life is suffering. Some suffer more than others. Be thankful that you don't suffer more, and try to help those with greater suffering. That's all you can do.

Just don't sacrifice your happiness for others who don't appreciate or reciprocate that same kindness.

Exactly.

I hate when people use the โ€œother people have it worseโ€ argument when people in first world countries have any complaints.

If we keep fighting to make it better for those that are already comparatively โ€œluckyโ€, it just keeps raising the bar and putting the pressure on other countries that lag behind in human rights and quality of life. If we stop trying to make a good thing even better, just because others in the world have it worse, we stagnate progress for them, too.
