I often think about things that really would make me happy, and I always seem to think of the same thing. To make me my happiest would be to be happy in my relationship and enjoy life with my kids and b/f. I know that a lot of people think that by having money would make them happy, and I agree to a certain extent that it would make me happy, but for me love and living life with my kids and those that I love are the things that would make me my happiest. How about you, what would make you at your happiest in your life.

that makes me happy? I was very confused when people ask what makes me happy. Sometimes that should make me happy, it made me unhappy. I am not a hypocrite, I agree the money could be made happy. Sometimes happiness come true because I have money. Togetherness with people we love is to give happiness, but sometimes that happiness will be a sad thing if we do not have the money. Because it is impossible to gather without us eating. Eating requires money, whereas if you do not have the money we are not able to eat with people we love.

Yes, sometimes we feel happiness is only temporary. Because happiness comes only temporary, i always try to enjoy that happiness. Because maybe I can not feel joy again. During happiness can still be enjoyed, I will not be wasted. I will enjoy the happiness that was before lost. So I do not regret if the happiness is gone. At least I've felt happy even if only temporarily.

Who can make happy is yourself. Happiness does not depend on others. Happiness is always trying to I made for myself. Many people who seek happiness, but they are sometimes difficult to find happiness. So I do not want to find happiness, but I want to create happiness. I do not want a lot of happiness, I always enjoy when it comes happiness. And I'm grateful, if the happiness that comes to me.

I do not want more happiness. The important thing for me, I could still feel happy. I would love to gather with friends and family, because it's the hanging out with them I can be happy. But I must understand my situation, I should according to my husband, I was not able to gather with family and my friends for a long time, and I do not know how much longer I can hang out with them.

I've taken on a different perception of life since I've had my kids. I'm more satisfied with what I have than what I don't. I'm learning to spend not just within my means but be more discerning and selective in what I spend on. I spend lots of time reassessing my goals and set my priorities in which it's not only 'me' this time but my family. We talk a lot and spend lots of time together. And we pray a lot too!
Hope you learn something from this topic you started.

the things that would make me most happy in life is having more time with my family. to be able to go on family vacations togehter. my youngest child is just about to start 1st grade next year. I would love to be the one who takes her to school, picks her up, and attends all of her school plays and shows. I was not able to do that this year and i am telling you it was heartbreaking for me. so i would love to just be there more for my family.
i am just about to launch my very own money making website tomorrow and i would love love love love it if it did well. so well i would be able to stay home with my daughter come this time next year! wish me luck

There are many things that could make me happy,,,having my health back is the main one. And money. Of course, having enough money is not a guarantee of being happy, but not having enough is sure a way to be sad. When you have to pick which bills to pay this month and which can wait, it makes life unpleasant. It would also make me happy if my son was more respectful of his dad and me instead of thinking we are just old, dumb, and useless.

Dear Rosie230,
In my life,many things can make me happy.I'm happy with my relations with my beloved friends,my family,my relatives and my partner.
The happiest things is I'm graduate for my degree after study for 3years plus and get a good CGPA.All my family especially my mum and dad very proud and happy with my good result.
After that I get a good job after graduate and earn a good salary and help my parents.Now I sponsor my younger brother for his study and I'm happy can help my family too.
I learn from an experience when we make our parents happy so we will be happy too.Our life will be blessed from a GOD for our kindness to take care the parents and siblings and everythings will be going smoothly.
Regards,

who can make me happy is if I can solve problems that are facing me. I would be happy if I can do whatever I like. I want to go on vacation with my family and my child. If it can be done, I would be very happy. If anyone says the money can be made happy, I was one person who agrees, because in order to realize my happiness, I need the money. To solve my problem, I need the money now. Finally, my happiness can be concluded, that what makes me happy is money.

what would make me happy right now is that my son see that his sister really needs him right now through this hard time in her life and make time to be there for her no matter if his wife likes it or not

Happiness in our lives is something we all want. Some of us are more expresive in this than others. I think I would find true happiness if I achieved every goal I set for myself. Satisfaction and pride would pave the way to such happiness. Simple pleasures can make us happy. Money and riches don't guarantee that we will be happy. We know what makes us happy. We just have to find a way to get there.

Giving and helping others can make me happy. Especially when you saw them that they were happy too and contented on whatever little things I gave to them.

hi rosie, to make me my happiest would be to always be close to my family and that we are always healthy, and enjoying life no matter how hard it is. then after that would be to be with my partner, always care for each other, both have a stable job, healthy, understanding each other as well and also respecting each other's family. i will be very happy too to have enough money to live everyday, but i don't hope to become rich. i have a lot more dreams and a lot more things that will make my life happy, but not very necessary. when i have chance to make them come true then i will go for it. take care

having money does make me happy but i think the best thing in life that makes me the happiest would have to be my friends and my boyfriend!they fill my life with laughter and fun! i think i would die without them being around.my boyfriend has to leave for the navy in like 2 months so i hope it will be easy and not really really hard!!!
