Are you happy?

Sunny happiness is what you make it. There is short term happiness and long term happiness it works like goals. I am happy on a daily basis but I wish I could have a little more money so I my husband would not have to work two jobs. I would be happy if he did not have to work two jobs. I am working on making a steady residual income that potentially will make money for my children I will be happy if that comes through, but if is does not it does not mean I will be unhappy.

I consider myself happy, although I always picture myself in a better place in a year. That's the thing, I try to be happy with my current situation as well as provide room for improvement. I understand what you mean when you say that as soon as one wish comes true than another one arises, but try to pursue your new wish while enjoying your situation. When I was in grade school I just wanted to be in high school. When I was in high school I just wanted to get into college. Now that I am in college I just want to get into med school, but if I keep living for tomorrow then my entire life will be gone without actually living. I suggest keeping your ambitions but enjoying the present.

Yes, I am happy with my life although it runs unfavorably at times. For as long as I have my God with me, my family, myself, I know that no matter how difficult events in my life unfold, I would be able to conquer them. Happy posting!

I think yes, that could be happiness for you and for the baby and begger. It is part of human nature to want more, it is also truth that happiness comes from within.

Start looking at all the things you have and how lucky you are to be so fortunate and then go out of your way to help others and eventually good things just naturally come to you. I get that way on occasion, but then I think of how lucky I am that I am healthy and have 3 wonderful kids and have a place to live which isn't much but I am warm in the winter and We always have food and I live in a really good County in a little village type town that is really quaint instead of having to live in downtown Philly or something. My kids go to really great schools and I really want a house for my children to live in and nice things for them and me, but I am so lucky so I change my frown to a smile right away and choose happiness instead of sorrow. It takes practice but it gets easier all the time till it's second nature and soon you don't find yourself unhappy much at all.

I feel happy when I make someone else happy. They say that happiness depends to the contentment of the person. I am happy because I am contented with what I have. I can do things freely, I am independent, I have a family whom I love so much, I have a boyfriend who is so understanding and kind, I can't wish for anything more. Being happy is a decision. I am happy for simply being alive.

To tell you the truth...I am not happy. I am so bombarded with problems it's as if I have a room full of unsolved cases It's as if the world is at my shoulders pressing me down each passing day until I reach the final point for me to say No More. It's as if I am a wife without a husband, A friend without a friend...I guess my problems won't end anymore...everyday I just wake up and say "ok what's the next problem I will have today". I just try to put up a positive face and I try my best to just put it all aside when I know I have to face them all again. Oh well..sigh****

Hi sunny to find peace of mind and love your self in everything you do brings happiness this is how I am normally always happy and don't let the sun go down on my day...littleowl

We're never happy for very long with what we have, that is how we are made by God. This is something we have to fight and win against or turn it into something good, like people who start a charity to help people. You are normal. But think of all the billions of people who don't have what you do, who are sick and never get better, whose children die tragically--this will help you to be grateful for what you have!

Yes I am happy with what I am and what I have and with who I am. This does not mean that i do not aspire to improve myself. I do aspire for other things but It does not mean that I am not contented or happy. i am happy and I thank God everyday for his blessings and I look forward to new blessings everyday. The secret is to be contented with what you have and confident that the future holds more blessings for you.
