Yupp, I include people who are happy, why? Since I am the type who principled, sociable and loves to exchange ideas (sharing), I also have strong business spirit. Every human being would have to meet a saturation point that sometimes makes us depressed. To avoid this, as difficult as any there is a way out as long as we want to try and pray. Things that make me happy is if all the plans that I have planned going well so as to produce a beautiful goal. I also tried to find as many friends to relieve saturation, lonely and bored. I am happy to have friends like you, I hope this way I can help you. Be an optimist and never pessimistic.

I am happy because I have made peace with myself, faults and all. I am happy because I believe we inhabit the world as we perceive it. If we focus on negative things, we manifest more of them. I am happy because there is love and laughter in my soul and I am very deeply grateful.

I would say, generally, yes. These years, my main interest is my career, and I have a full-time job which is exactly the type I have been aiming for. It has to do primarily with trading internationally. This makes me travel to countries in different parts of the world often. That's very interesting working with people of different nationalities and cultures. I get to see beautiful scenic places too in the countries I visit.

I am basically a happy person. You can pick on me and you wont even see any change in my mood. I guess it is disposition on how one lives. Have i ever been depressed? Of course yes. One was when the guy i loved left me and the second one is the torment of waiting for someone. I thank God i have friends who pick up whenever i start my spirits go down.

Today a friend of mine asked me how i am and i answered that i am happy for no particular reason. Yes it is true! Today i just feel so happy to be alive, to have a good family, to have a home to go too and, simply for being just me. I am not really a happy person but there are times when i am just so extremely happy i can kiss anybody!

What makes me happy is to dream with all the things I could do, and for this reason I wake up every day dreaming that I can do many things and travel to many places.... I also like when Im whit my family to share nice moments

I used to be a happy person - I had a good job, money, a loving partner and lived in a country where the sun and heat were constantly there. But, today - I am suffering from severe depression and anxiety, I have no job, very little money, I had to leave my partner on the other side of the world, and am now living in a homless shelter. Happiness is how you make your life but like all things it can all be taken away from you in a blink of the eye. Enjoy what you have and try to smile and laugh at least once in a day.

Hi there mark98!!! Well if your going to ask my friends there going to tell you that I am a very serious person.But try to ask my real friends they'll tell you that I am a bubbly and very funny person.Well this just means that my attitude and mannerisms depends on the people I am staying with. If I am with people that are serious and busy, I tend to be serious too.But if the people around me shows joy and happiness and without any worries I tend to adapt the same mood.Well this is the only thing I can tell you about me. I have been depressed a couple of times becoz many trials in life.Mostly becoz of family problem or sometimes financial problems.But I don't stay depressed too long coz I am lucky enough to find a way around any problems with the help of my family and friend.

Yes I'm happy. What makes me happy is knowing that everything is alright and that life could be way worse. Never been depressed. Being a happy person is just being satisfied with what you have and counting your blessings instead of complaining about what you don't have
