Are You Happy With Your Life?

Ya, I think we have all felt that way at times in our lives. I know I have. If I start to feel that way too often then I take it as a sign that I need to examine what it is in my life that is causing me to feel that way and if there is anything I can do to change that. I'm not depressed either and for the most part I am happy with my life. Of course there is always room for improvement but that would be the same with everyone. It's life. What keeps me where I am? My kids...my grandchildren. I could not up and leave them nor could I uproot my daughter who is still at home and move her away from her dad. She hardly ever sees him but I always hope he will wake up and be a more active part of her life. If he does not then it is his own fault but I don't want to be any part of making it harder for him. In fact...I've gone over and beyond to try to get him more involved. Because of all this...I know my great escape ( and they do happen) will only be a drive about town or maybe to the library to unwind and regain perspective.

Yes, currently I am happy with my life. I don't know if it's due to the fact that I take pills against depression, or because I'm away from my mother. She tend to upset me a LOT.

I'm not sure if I would describe myself as happy but I would definitely describe myself as content! I want to grow and do more things with my life but it seems that I am stuck right now and sometimes I do feel lost. I try to keep the light of hope alive in my life but boy is it difficult at times. There have been lots of tears and sadness and during those times I have escaped into a good book and forgotton about everything that is going on around me. I think that as long as I'm alive I'm about to continue trying to move forward. I have been depressed and I have suffered loss but I guess we learn to deal with these things, time is a great healer as they say. I would love to escape my world as it were, if only for a very short period. As always though, it boils down to lack of money and finances. I try to enjoy my life within my capabilities. There are so many nice things in life to reflect on like being so grateful for the act of breathing! Andrew

I guess I'm not. I'm currently unemployed, not happy with the career path I took, lots of problems financially, plus my girlfriend's mother wants her daughter to be with someone else. I'm fighting all the adversities of life but I feel really tired. Maybe it's my family, girlfriend, or God that keeps me standing and fighting. shadow41

Hi afarrell, Well, I think even what happen I always want to be happy with my life. I always think that we should be grateful to have life and live in this world. Sometime we need to think that the problems that we face are just the test for us in this world. Its the nature of life that we need to accept that. Relax and always think to find the solutions for the problems.

Life would be alot better if we all did not have to worry about finding all that money for all those naSTY BILLS ALL OF THE TIME.i HAVE NO MONEY LEFT AFTER PAYING ALL THE BILLS AND IT WILL SOON BE cHRISTMAS AND I WANT TO GET AHEAD OF ALL THOSE NASTY BILLS AS WELL AS MAKE SURE WE HAVE A NICE cHRISTMAS.sO AT THIS TIME MY LIFE IS FULL OF STRESS.

You will always find something stressful and unhappy in the life, no matter how rich you are, no matter what job you are doing. It is very normal. If you can not make enough to pay your bill each month, you would be worried about how to make more money. if you suddenly get a huge amount of money, you would be worried about how to spend the money. In simple words everyone has to face these things in the life. The only way to overcome them is to have the balanced mind and try to find the solution. My life is always full of all kinds of stressful things. Everyday I am overwhelmed with my project and my family. I am still trying to find time I can save to do other thing I am interested in. What I can do is making persistent effort to find the solution to these problems. During this process you can not lose the confidence. Without it you might find it hard to make progress in finding the way out of your problems. Make you stronger and believe yourself.

I would say I'm contented with the way its going right now. Being happy in not always a good thing. Life is much enjoyable when their are problems which adds spices to it. Facing difficult problem are also needed to teach and learn new lessons and become better person. Without it life could not be called life.

I am very happy with my life. I could never leave it. My kids and husband are my life and I could not imagine 1 day without them. Sometimes its easy just to want to get away and pretend that you don't have any responsibilities but I still would never want to leave my family.

Life is what we make it. If you want your life to be happy, then it depends upon you. If you want to start your day a happy day, then smile when you wake up. Just do it everyday... There are so many definitions of LIFE. Just be contented and you will see the SIGNIFICANCE of your LIFE.

was happy not anymore, I just cope...

I sometimes feel overwhelmed as well and wanna run away from everything. However, I have a stronger feeling that most of the times of my life is shiny and bright. If I'm in the lowest low or just simply low, I try to get a grip of myself by keeping my faith to the Most High. I just keep on pressing forward and He always provide.

Yes i am happy with my life.I have got the things that i want in my life.
