Are you really happy?

Hello. You had a nice point of view..:) Actually, i'm a cheerful person, easy to make me laugh/smile but for now, i think i'm not really happy. I did smile or laugh but that happinesss is only for a while. I'm not asking or expecting too much, it's just that i still feel incomplete. Not only in money matters but in all aspects i think. feeling happy is simple but being happy isn't that easy. it's true that one must be contented to what he/she had now and appreciate it. and of course, don't forget to thank God for it.:)

I am happy! I know life is not always contains of happiness, there are pains, angers,jealous, etc. We will have some bad moods. That is okay, as long as you have someting to think of when you are not happy to make you happy. That's my opinions.

Right now I am exausted, physicaly and emotionaly exausted. It seems that everything needs to be done and it needs to be done now. There are a lot of people asking me for a lot of things that I cant give. I am first a mom and if I have any will then I can help someone else. Im not always like this. It has been a hard week or month rather and I am just done dealing with it all and taking care of me.

i think i am happy and i feel that i am happy...simply because i am contented and satisfied with what i have. i learned to appreciate things and thankful for everything that i have... i am happy to see that my family is living at peace, i am with my loving and supporting husband, we have strong connection to our God... that's it...that's make my life happy...

As long as i love what i do and i am contented on the results or outcome, i can say that i am happy. No one can measure his or her own happiness because it is already available for us. All we need to do is to grab it. If time gives you the chance, go for it because most of the things and opportunities are given once in a life time.

I think you're really right. The root of all the greed is money. And no one will be satisfied and happy if money still lyes in every one's mind.

I am happy with the people I love. I am happy to see them happy. The only thing that will make me feel sad is to see them sad. They are the love of my life. They share their smiles and joys with me all the time. Our problems get solved in each other's help. Love makes our world understand each other.

I am very happy and grateful for what I have. I have a wonderful family. I have great friends. I feel connected to God. There are of course things that I want like more money, but I can truly say that I am happy.

well, i have always been happy with myself..rather satisfied and doing my job..though with lot of expectations from outside, i m less happy these days..more so with constant investigative and expecting parents i feel the pressure around me...

I absolutely agree that happiness is only the state of mind.Contentment is what which brings cent percent happiness.The entire world is running the rat race -after material benefits.From children to old people every one wants to lead aluxurious life compete with each other to possess all kinds of gadgets ,jewels,palatial houses ,high positions and so on and so forth.But everything in life is transient ,nothing is permanent in the world.Doing yog or meditation will surely relieve the stress and tension in the world and enable ue to acquire mental satisfaction and there by happiness.

Yes i agree with your words, happiness is satisfaction, achievement and our emotions. Its not impossible to be perfect, one can be perfect, if we are, if we think we can, if we have positive attitude, positive thoughts and positive things for others.

I can say that I am happy right now. I have my husband and my son with me, that is all that matters to me. I am happy to see my son grow up and have fun in school. Though there are some things we do not have yet, I am still thankful that my family is complete.

"Man is never content with what he has" and it is the same with many of us here. MyLot is one such place where people register to earn "extra" money which shows that no one here is really content. So when one is not content how can he/she be happy! I'm not really happy at this point of my life but i try my best to enjoy every phase of my life and laugh away at difficult times. The best way to be tension-free is to just relax and think about he present. When you start pondering about the past and worrying about the future you invite tension/stress and many other disease. Don't think about money for a while and believe that you are having a peaceful and a happy life. All the best :)

I recently read a book called the power of now by eckhart tolle where they teach you how you can be happy even in bad times. I have been quite happy after reading the book and I highly recommend it if you want to achieve happiness.

True. I completely agree with you. Thinking positively really helps. As some wise sayings put it "Worrying is like being on a rocking chair" one can keep rocking the chair yet it doesnt take you anywhere. You remain in that condition no matter how long you rock that chair. So you might as well change the channel of your mind if worrying doesn't take you anywhere. Being happy is a decision too.

Well i can say that right now in my life i am happy. I have a family of my own. I have a supportive hubby and a smart and adorable daughter. Because of them i can say that i am happy, we dont have everything in life but the love to each other was the greatest thing we have right now. I am glad that God gave me opportunity to be a mother and a wife also, its really a nice feeling everyday that i am with them. Although now my hubby was working abroad so i am just with my daughter, but still the love to each other was there even his far away. I am just happy thats what i can say =)

Im not really happy, i always be tensed, tension in life, but i don't want to be like this, I have hope that one day i will be really happy....

No, I'm not happy at all these days, I just want to have a normal life and live happily but I can't :-(

most of the time, happiness and satisfaction are related to each other. what is satisfaction for me cannot be satisfaction for you. i feel happiness should not be weighed in terms of satisfaction but it should have a different definition. think of the times when you achieved success and were happy. you will remember many such ocassions but the also remember the happiness was short lived. the moment you started thinking high you forgot the happiness. why not try something different for happiness. try to be happy by making others happy, help people in achieving their goals or targets. bring a smile on a gloomy face. think about the time when you were happy and be happy with the thought that atleast you had a fortunate time, many on earth can't even taste what you were bestowed upon. try not to compare yourself with with the higher up but in case you compare then compare yourself who are below your level.

In fact,i am not really happy now!but i will try to be happy!after all,being happy is a day,being sad is also a day!so why don't i choose happy!
