Sharmi Albrechtsen was a true Hindu-American princess. Obsessed with shoes and handbags and designer labels, she saw status and wealth as the only route to happiness. But she wasn't happy enough, no matter how much designer gear she owned. And it wasn't until 1997, when she married her second husband, a Dane, and relocated to Denmark, that she began to wonder if it was something lacking in herself, rather than her possessions, that was at the root of her problems.
If you're interested in what makes a happy person, you might also enjoy [[The Secrets of Happiness by Richard Schoch]] or [[Feel Happy Now by Michael Neill]].
