Right now I am, but it is times when I am not. Life can be like a box of Chocolates, Remember that saying? You never know what your going to get. I would say just think possitive, and be happy!!! Have a great day! Thanks Marcie.

When you think that you are not happy, you will be unhappy, start thinking possitive. and I bet you will be a lot more happy, just by thinking it. have a great day and smile, (hugs) to you!!

I am happy, I have a loving and supporting husband- I couldn't be wrong in choosing him. I have a job though I don't like it that much but it pays me good..so yeah I am happy. We have trials and troubles and stuggle and yet I am happy, because for me-happiness is not brought about by what is happening around you. It's inside,it's what you feel despite of.

When you are a child of God, your circumstances don't have to dictate your mood. You can choose to rest in the happiness that is found only in Jesus.

I always try to be happy and stay cool but am unable to be like that all time.Sometimes i get into some worries and feel very unhappy.Happiness cannot be with us every moment but can come along with us throughout our life.At this moment iam very happy but dont know what will happen the other minute.Its very uncertain and cannot be predicated but one can always feel the enjoyment when one is happy and making someone else happy.Good day to you ! suba.

Don't quite you Job, but find a Job that you like, It is very stressful to work somewhere where your not happy, don't you agree? I hope you find a job that you really will like, you deserve it, everyone does.

I am not happy. My husband accused me of not shutting the back door because I did not slam it shut. Yet he does not want me to slam the car door. I look younger than my years. Am I supposed to have wrinkles on my face and have arthritis for him to respect me? He treats like a little kid sometimes, and I am older than he is. He was brought up Mennonite where the men are way more important than the women who are supposed to be quiet passive little birds unless they are immaculate housekeepers who do not have a bit of dust on the floor, are perfect cooks and never make a mistake. It is not my fault that my family is long lived and I inherited this good young looking face. It does not mean I am immature.

I am a 41 year old, stay at home mom to the sweetest almost 3 yr old little boy who I thought I would never be able to have. Three years ago we conceived after over tens years of believing that we never could. I believe that everything I have ever done in my life was in some way preparing me for this time in my life. I have had a good career, I have traveled, I have been able to put away some money and now I am blessed to be able to stay home with my child and experience each day of his life with him. I am very happy!!! Would I change a few things? Sure, I believe that it is not healthy to ever become to comfortable and satified with things as that could lead to no longer learning and growing. I have a wonderful husband who loves me very much, a son who is a product of that love and a life that we are both very proud to be able to provide for our son. Happiness indeed.

Most of the time I think that I am happy. Because I belong to the type who is easily content. But when I meet something unhappy, I won't have it stay in mind too long before I am happy again. I know it is no good for us to be unhappy. I am a very positive person.

There will be time when we feel happy or sad. I can say sseing from my life, I am happy. I have a nice husband and a lovely boy. I am sometimes happy in real, but sometimes I am happy as I am seen. Does that mean I am? I always say to my friends always think positive and be happy, but sometimes I cant do it too. I can tell myself to be happy when I am sad, but it can be just that simple. I cant be happy if there is something wrong. So can you just be happy and think positive when you are really not? :D

No, you can you have a good point, just think happy thoughts, if you think negative thoughts you will have negative thoughts.

I agree with your words.We are people.If we thinking everything positive in every situation we face then we become god's and not people.Thinking negative and thinking positive in some situation is our human tendency.Life is really a game,we have to face with it with a proper plan.No one in this world are happy constantally.Even though we have so much money we cant live happily.So,thinking positive and trying to help others makes ur life feel comfortable and live happily to some extent.

If you had asked that to weeks ago, I would have said yes. Now, I am not. I'm quite depressed actually. My hubby sold my husky and I am still gutted about it. She was my best friend in this country, now I have none.

I'm pretty happy right now. I've just started my own biz and it's lots of work but all worth it. I've started a tutoring biz here, so I'm around kids everyday. Just seeing kids learning and having fun makes me happy.
