well me i cant understand my self maybe because im not happy with my life. i grow up without my parents beside me. and its really hard for me because when i was a kid im hurt when i saw other kids parents are there. and i can see them happy. im just staying with my aunt since i was a small girl. right now im in college and i encounter lots of problems in my life. our family is big, we are 13 in our house and there 2 people working. and their salary is just enough for our foods. my aunt will just give me a little allowance. and as a college student there lot of things that we need, like clothes,stuff in school, and so many things. but i cant afford to buy those things. i am a scholar in a private school, and sometimes i am jealous with the other student because they can have what they want or need. but i am contented of what i have, i am happy with my friends, they are always there to support me, they understand all my problems. they are always there for me when they know that i am so down. i am so lucky that i met them, because they are the one who makes me more strong, they are the one who guided my way when i don't know where to go. my life is very miserable, i have lots of wishes, they are just simple but i know i would be very happy. like to have new clothes,shoes,and many more because this year i never had 1.
i just wondering with those rich teenagers they have everything what they want but sometimes they are not happy with their life, they have more problems in their life, maybe because they have everything, what they have is the love of their family. i am not sure but thats what i observed with my rich friends....

Life is fickle and always changing, it is difficult to say you are happy with something that is never the same from moment to moment. I am happy with me. I like who I am, and I love the person I have become. Because I have learn to love the person in my skin, I can also reach out and love others. I grew up poor and am not much better off now, at least until I can get rid of all my kids (lol). I am breathing, I can walk, I can think most of the time (smile), and I have no crippling deformaties; so I am thankful for that. I am thankful for the food and shelter I have and take it not for granted. I am thankful for the love of my family and friends, co-workers and church members. I am thankful that I live each day to the fullest that I am able to master on any given day. I suppose you would say that I am happy with my life, as full of imperfections as it is, it is still mine.

Rent the movie, "The Secret" or go to the library and borrow books about the law of attraction. Your life, from this day forward, will be everything you want it to be.
