it is because they truly, deeply want it to be. life is what we expect and desire of it. the real question is why would anyone chose to be miserable?
i say this because i've been seeing it for years in my own life. when i was miserable it was a matter of making a conscious choice not to allow those thoughts to control what happened to me. since the moment i decided i would be happy i have been happy. i do have the benefit of normal brain chemicals, that i know of, though.

realize that the reason i think this way has to do with a combination of things: the idea that every small decision sends out ripples into the rest of existence, that intention and how we respond to each situation is our only solace in this vast world and that between the two we can make the world what we want it to be.
i would say that this person is in a growing process due to all of this that is fundamentally necessary to their journey in life. as a result there is a lot of good in the situation, no matter how shot to shit it looks now.
