Are You Happy With Your Life As You Know It?

I've done a few things differently - IF I knew how and when to do them, but getting married is STILL not one of the things I would've done

No. I am not happy with my life totally. It is too hectis and too stressful for me. I wish I had some peace of mind in my daily life, but that is so hard to come by here. I wish we were better off finanacially also because we work seven days a week already.

Things are a little tight, money's a little tight, but life is stable now, after one crazy year. My husband and I were just talking about how much things have changed for us in the last year, and we are absolutely thrilled with how much better things are going, even if we don't have that much money.

hi tina yes I guess I am because I am not on the streets but I would love to be back in an apartment rather than be here in this retirement home. It is nothing against the people here, I truly have grown to love some of them here, its just that I am being pampered just because I am 83 while I was doing all my own things when we had our own apartment. but my son lost his job, and we had to make these sacrifices so I am here and he is in a gov.sponsored apt. with three other guys all of whom are also out of work.Tina I am so glad for you really and glad you are happy so no matter what little things rise to irk you still have a fine home , a beloved husband and those are what really count.But my son comes to see me often and assures me when he gets a job and accumulates some money we will once again be a family . so yes I am happy for now, why be sad, as that defeats ones health. life could be a lot worse, living on the street with the homeless so yes I am happy here for now.

I wish my health was better but it's not, Can't change that. There are some changes i'd make if i could but can't do that either. i'm pretty satisfied w/the way things are.

iam so happy for you. at least someone is as happy as i once was with my late hubby and a new house and things you've always wanted. i really should be very happy myself but i sit here and wallow in my misery over hubby being gone, loosing my house, and job, and ability to work at all. i mean, after all, i have a wonderful son that does all he can for me. he has his own home of which he has welcomed me, even tho we struggle to keep mortgage payments up at least so far we have a lovely roof over our heads and plenty to eat when not everyone does God is good to us.

i am very happy with the people i have in my life but nobody is perfect,i would like to change certain irritating habits in me as well as my loved ones.

Yes....for the most part. I would like to share a bit of my life with someone...I have been divorced for over 30 years.....one bad marriage can make you skeptical but I am open to someone coming into my life.....but it has to be right...Otherwise my kids are grown.....I have four wonderful grandkids....I always wanted to be a writer and have been doing that for 10 years....and I love doing crafts and get the opportunity to do craft sales when I want.....pretty much of my life is filled with the things I love....

Well my life didnt turn out like I planned I was in college studying to be a vet then was run over by a forklift an my life changed well I was told I wouldnt walk an have children well 25 years later I walk yea so I have a little limp sometimes an i also married my high school sweetheart an we have 2 daughters so yes i am thrilledthe way my life is going

I think one thing I've always wished I could do is get my priorities straight. I think I'm thinking more on this lately then I have in the past. I need to get my permit so I can get my license, but I have to study for that. You see, I had epilepsy until I was 18 at which time I was told I no longer had epilepsy. I just recently went through the hassle of getting it all worked out with the DMV in my state, and now I am all clear except for the need to wear glasses while driving. Now I just need to learn. I want a doublewide and car soon, but I know I have to work really hard on those things too. My husband works but I am still waiting for my job to go through until I can start working. I mylot, we both do, and that helps but we're also spending too. We need to think of a savings plan, but though we have it can't be implemented truly until I get a job. I know it will all work itself out, my husband will help and God will as well. I agree with you on that, we have to put in a little effort and work hard, but we have people who care, our husbands, and we have god.

Well, for me, I am very happy for the life I'm living in. Because when I was watching Step Up 2, at the beginning of the film I heard "Life is too simple to live as someone else". I found it was very deep. And I agree with that slogan. I'm very cheerful maybe because I know that I am me. Well, I must admit that there are a lot of people who are richer than me, who are wealthier than me, who are wiser than me, but when it comes to happiness I believe that there are number of people who are not as happy as I am. When defining what my life is, it is simply on where I look at it, and how I look at it.

I am happy and I am not happy. I am happy because I have a job, a house, loving parents, healthy family, and generally good life. I am not happy cause I still aspire to do many things in live other than be a slave :)

As we kown,lifs is a interesting thing.we should try live in differengt ways.

Honestly i don't regret what i have done so far. Although at times i feel i could have done better in life but what i do know is that is that i seized every opportunity that came my way. All the same i am not satisfied with where i am right now. I keep moving on looking for new opportunities because thats wat makes my life interesting

Hi Tina Yes I am happy and content, the only thing that I wish I could still do is go out to work as I always loved going to work But my Illness now prevents me from doing that and I am on Disability But in the last 5 years I have learned a lot and have found a few Talents I never knew I had lol I now have a wonderful Man that loves me something I never thought I would find but I have I have 2 Wonderful grown Children and then of course my little Gissi and all my Friends on here so yes I am happy with the way things are now

To be honest i am not happy as how my life turns out.I am actually pathetic. My choice of field, career, family and many more but i think that's how life is. Few hard lesson to learned that not everything we planned in our lives will happen exactly what we had plan. Anyway, I am hoping that one day some good things that will happen in my life and that even once in my life i could feel the happiness i deserve. I know God has better plans for me and i know He had a reason why this is all happening to me and why i had to get through this. Thanks a lot, its just a good timing to respond on this as i really feel down at the moment. I feel i need to say something to feel better but i just don't know how and what to say.

Hi Tina, I admit I have a bittersweet life, but things are getting better as I go near the stage of motherhood. My career life has been doing fine in our home country but I decided to leave and join my husband who is working overseas. As planned I didn't work for a while as we want a child as soon as we got married but it didn't turned out right. Along the process there were so many domestic problems and yet I need to stand still so as "to contain what will nearly be spill out". Headstrong as I am, I continued to carry out what I believe is right. As God is benevolent, He gave us the son that will be a joy forever after five long years. I am looking forward to giving birth end of this month. Hope and pray that it will be a wonderful moment for me and my husband. Blessings!

Yeah, I'm happy with my life... I know LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT. If you want to be happy, it's really your choice. Although problems would come but it's not the reason to give up but to strive hard just to attain our goal in life...

Everything that happened in our lives has a purpose. That is why we are fortunate that we still experience the luxury of life. Even if what situation we undergo right now, we must remember that it is God's will. We must live it with accordance to his will. We can be happy if we learn to be contented in life. Even how simple our way of living, we should be thankful for God allowed that to us. There's no reason to frown. Live life to the fullest for we can only have it once. You will be completely happy if you did everything, enjoy your way of life and give your best in everything. Im sure you will have a happy and meaningful life on earth..

I would have to say I am happy with what I have achieved in my life, the person I have become and the people who surround me. I mean, There will always be greater things out there, bigger things to do, etc., but I could honestly say that at this point in my life, I am exactly where I want to be. As for regrets, I have never been the type to dwell on the past and what could have been's, so I guess that facet of my personality help a lot for me to find real happiness in who I am and what I have right now.
