Happy or just trying to be?

being contented of what life you have is something that makes you happy... but if you are looking for more that makes you happy and be contented you are just trying to be happy because you are not satisfied... it is just going to a gathering and choosing what to wear... but you only have this one pair of clothes on your closet which it cannot suits on the said gathering... you are happy because you want to go on that gathering but trying to be happy because of the outfit you wear is not your type...

I understand how you feel. Sometimes people just don't realize how important someone is when that someone is still around. But once that someone is gone, they will realize actually how important that someone is. I don't mean anything. Sorry if I hurt you. But that's the fact. ^^ I don't know what have you done to make your husband or anyone in the family realize your existence. If I were you, I will go to breathe fresh air without telling him. Just want to know, whether he realize that I am gone or not at all. ^^ But all is up to you. Once again, I don't mean anything. ^^ Do what you want to do and be happy.

Happiness depends on ourselves, how to address the situation. Happiness is something that must be created, not something that is sought. Create happiness as long as you can, do not waste time looking for happiness.

Hi, Trying to be happy is a good thing to start with. We can't expect everybody to come and try to make us happy. You are important. Try to realize that. You are a beloved child of God and you will always be the most important possession of your family. But please reduce the level of your expectations. Just be yourself. You mentioned that you don't depend on anybody for your happiness. But as a matter of fact, I think, you do. Why would you depend on others to make you feel important? Happiness is a choice my dear. You can choose to stay happy even in the midst of utmost crisis. Thats what I call 'the art of living'. Thanks. God bless you

Hello you are right, you are doing your duty as a wife, as mother, but each of us has an inherent tendency to be recognised ,to be appreciated; without that we feel neglected, am sure of that.. Thank you so much for sharing. Professor. . Cheers God bless you.

I feel the same exact way as you. I feel like I would just like some appreciation sometimes for the things that I do. For some reason, some people think it is easy to stay at home and take care of the kids and the house. It's not as easy as people think it is...I hope things get better soon for you! =)

I love my family and I know that they love me, but I do feel like a maid at times instead of a part of the family. My husband says that I complain to much but at times it helps and they learn to do a little on their own. They need to realize that I want a life outside part of the time too. Iknow that I spend a lot of time on my computer but I am always earning money too.

Hi, Life is up and down and we have to treasure our life and the people at our side. I am a full-time housewife and I am definitely having a routine lifestyle. Almost everyday I am doing the same thing,sending my son to school,doing housechores,cooking, fetching my son back from school. Of course, I will have some free time at night to watch Tv and surfing net. Do I feel happy with my life now? I can't blame anyone...it is the life that I choose and I have to go on with it. Nothing to be regretted. With my son around, I am having a busy day...taking care of him is definetely not an easy task for me. I do hope to go back to workforce community one day.But now, I have to spent more times with my son and my family. Only when my son has grown up,then I will have chance to find a job,and I hope I can get a good job with my qualification. Treasure what you have now!!!Takecare..

yeah life is a routine of activities doing the same thing everyday everyday in your life but it doesn't mean you are neglected because without you these people around you can't do nothing without you! just like they can't stand without you! look.! you cook for them, clean, take care of them when they get sick right,? now try this.. stay away from them even just a day..I am sure they will ask, where did she go? they will look for you!

Hi dear, At many times we used to forget to how to live. That is the main issue also. We will lost somewhere while we are living. Show you importance and be active with others. And make undertand your importance, whis may be having more/less important. You should act in such a way that you are important. So, you will get attention and care whenever and wherewever you needed. Regards, Thank-s

i try to make activities that i like... i herad that in marriage it is a little routine, i am not married, but try to concentrated about yourself!

hi czanwell...i can say its but natural to feel unhappy. We are not perfect, we have emotions and most of all we are human. If there is something that depresses us, feel unhappy..its normal. But i hope, most of your time should be happy. Good luck to you.

I'm happy with my life. Of course there are things that make me sad but I manage to deal with them. Though I'm school - dorm basis, I manage to get social life by having lunch with my block mates, meeting people in the internet through forums, playing sports during free time, and other fun activities.:D

I believe it actually depends on how you take life. It can be a routine if one prefers to do the same thing every day, every single of the year. But if you try to make goals and do new things then it would not be. I understand that your work is in the house and you should know that you play a vital role in unit. You can try cooking something special once a week or make a new look in the house, like change in furniture arrangement. You can do gardening and change the look if your lawn every now and then. Or you can also give yourself a new haircut and new look every now and then. If you think that housework is getting routine, you can also probably have a small business or attend a cooking class or whatever class that doesn't take up so much time. :)

trying to be happy because i have nothing achievements that makes me feel happy, only those trying hard achievement which results to success..i don't have anyone and someone who could be on my side always unlike others.. i only have mind to think and heart to feel. beyond this, i could still let myself believe that i am happy because of my parents and most of all because of God.

As what I believe in, doing ordinary things extraordinarily makes surprises. And surprises could either be extremely happy or shockingly upsetting. So, Im just taking the normal roller coaster of life to make me going on. I don't care about emotions as long as I live.

Happiness is relative, it depends on the person mainly. In our everyday lives we see people who sometimes have situations worse than ours but still, they are happy. It's because they appreciate the little things that come their way. We must try to do things for the people we love not just to please them, but because we love doing it for them. Maybe you should try injecting some other small activities in your daily schedule to feel a little change. Who knows, you might discover a new skill or talent in yourself.
