The White Rabbit was not a happy creature. He hopped around Wonderland with a tear on his cheek. Although he could afford a big fancy watch, a nice house and a servant named Mary-Ann, he could not buy happiness. He led his life under fear of the Queen, his egotistical employer. This fear caused him to constantly worry about his tardyness. The White Rabbit had a bad quality of life.
The Rabbit valued money more than happiness. He worked a high-paying, high-stress job, running errands for the Queen. He once said that he was late for an important date but that wasn't true. He never had dates, he had no time. He ran around like a chicken with his head cut off out of the fear that he would end up with the same fate as the chicken. He cared about his expensive watch and house but not his well-being.
The poor soul was easily distracted from his work. He could have worked so much better if he had just stopped getting distracted. In the movie alone, he stopped to do other things twice. Did he really need to get his gloves, or meet the Mad Hatter? Probably not. If he had just kept on working he would have been on time.
The White Rabbit could have improved his quality of life very easily. When he payed a visit to the Mad Hatter, the hatter not only stole his watch but he also cut it open and began slathering it with all manners of food; butter, sugar, tea, jam, lemon... The rabbit could have sued him for theft and destruction of property and made millions. He never would have needed to work again and would have lived happily ever after.
In conclusion, the rabbit was a poor little soul, but he could have helped himself. If he had just left his job with the queen and stood up for himself, he could have soved all of his problems. He may have missed his date but that doesn't always have to be the case. The White Rabbit can have a happier future, he just needs to sort out his values, and the millions of dollars from the Mad Hatter won't hurt either.
