I realize that we are not happy all the time that is understandable but we can all live a more fulfilled life and that will make us to be at peace and live a more happy life Being happy does not have to do with material things because some of the unhappy person are the ones that can afford whatever they want I believe that happiness have a lot to do with your mind set and your outlook on life one must learn to appreciate themself and be comfortable in whatever position they find themself because worry about it will not change situation we all have to go through a process

That is positively right, one of us have a satisfactions in life to be at peace in everything. The material things are only the accessories and if we live in that thing our life will be longing and some times we made to a decisions wrongly. More than anything else is the faith from god and be more open to the trials that we might be encounter and dont question to it for we have to be practical that god give trials to each and every people for he know that if we have faith in him, all the trials are only a test on us, if how much strength we have to face it. And ask him if we could not get through it. God also have limits to the things that we asks.

Hello willy, I agree you with you. Happiness is not about the material things we have. Some people would have every material things in life but is not happy. They are not happy because they are still wanting more. They are never contented with what they have in life. I think in order for us to be happy we should be contented with what we have. We should treat every thing in our life as a blessing. Every single day is a blessing and its already a reason to be happy. Take care and Have fun mylotting red_amethyst

Yes, of course. Happiness can be attained with the absence of material things. We can be happy if we want to and to appreciate the meaning of our existence. Every little thing has a purpose and we need to appreciate whatever we have and count all every little blessings that we received.

You are right there. There is the old saying...glass half full or half empty. I'm an half full kind of person. This means I see things on the positive side. I believe that is the best, if not the only, way to be happy. If you learn how to apreciate the good things in life you will become a more happy person. I wrote an article about this stuff some time ago. You can find it on my personal website. ;)
