It seems that in general, thinking hard makes a person sad. People who think in the moment tend to be a lot happier than those who think about 1,000 issues at a time. Mentally retarded people are oftentimes very happy people, for this reason. Why is it the case, though? Why am I happy when I clear my head, but immediately saddened when I start thinking too hard? Why does thinking hard inevitably lead to negative thoughts?

Simple. Those who think "hard" concentrate on what is wrong not what is right.

*“For in much wisdom is much grief, and he who increases knowledge increases sorrow.” *(Ecclesiastes 1:18)
Hz. Ali 
used to weep in prayers…
Somewhere in the Torah also, it is mentioned that there is an attraction to a sad face…
Udaas logon sai pyaar karna, koi to seekhay, koi to seekhay…
