unhappiness is best defined as the difference between our talent and our expectations:

unhappiness is a hurdle in the way of our talents and our expectations. Unhappiness the opposite of happiness is a state in which human being is not able to do anything productive. There are many possible reasons for unhappiness like loneliness especially when a person social circle is zero. It can be of jealousy from others what they have achieved. Lack of accountability that a person is doing mistakes but is not capable of making them right. Excessive reasoning and being negative to everything and every person. By all these factors a person can make himself unhappy only and its result is the wastage of his or her talent and expectations. The person who is happy is always successful because they know how to use their talent to achieve their goals and to complete their expectations about life.

Good effort!

However, I found the following line a bit confusing:

'Lack of accountability that a person is doing mistakes but is not capable of making them right.'

Accountability may not necessarily lead to correction of mistakes. Accountability only means the state of being liable or answerable to something irrespective of the possible correction of something wrongly done.

Try to make summary/precis on your own, then others will evaluate and let you know if some improvements are needed.

What type of help do you need in Direct/Indirect narration? If you are facing difficulty in converting direct narration into indirect narration or vice versa, then post here those particular sentences so that other members may convert those for you.
