Funny how both short and tall people lament their circumstances and not all but in many cases envy the opposite's situation.
Same with women with naturally straight vs curly hair, etc.
People always just want what they don't have.
A defect we have is overvaluing things that we don't possess, while failing to account for the reality that there are positives and negatives to any situation. But we skew negative on what is ours and positively on what is another's.
But just like material things, if we got whatever we were after, we would get bored by it eventually and come to nitpick negatives about it all the same.
People are weird.
