Do you have life without happiness? How do you obtain happiness? How do you continue to live life when parts fo your life are missing? These are questions that have currently been running through my mind? Yes, I know the basic defnition of being happy, but part of me feels that it is more and when a person is in a state of transition in their life how do they know what makes them happy? How do you know if what made you happy in the past is the same that makes you happy now? Where does happy come from. As I venture from one part of my life into a new transition, I am continously asking and questiing my happiness, successful and life as awhole. I think about whats missing would I be happy if their was something or someone else in my life. What happened to my past interests and hobbies and how do I get back there? Where is the balance in life? I know these are questions I have to answer for myself, but I was curoius to see where others may stand on this topic and if there are others that have gone through this phase our their life where doubt is huge?

Happiness?
It means you can watch the morning sky, whether clear-blue, gray or gray. Each ray of sunshine to caress me and warms me. And every drop is rain or snowflake, I trying to steal a kiss. All colors and sounds of nature. People smiles, laughter and kindness elderly children.
Happiness is looking mother makes me feel perfect ... and her hands tired, but so gentle that I have power to take all the pain in your soul.
Happiness is all they receive and embrace that it offers. Each tear that pour out of love or joy.
Happiness is being able to give something to comfort a grieving soul. Happiness is the joy of others, their achievements, their happiness.
Happiness is about beautiful memories dear people.
Happiness is a quiet soul, happy, good, able to forgive and to give.
Happiness is moments spent with people that love them. Emotions of a song that makes your soul vibrate.
Happiness is the hope and confidence that you can take anytime from the end.
Happiness is life ...

Life is a routine that we constantly adapt to survive. More often than not, it's enduring the difficulties and trials that comes along as I go through it. When problems come along I get so frustrated and confused that I can't focus on the positive side, but then, by weighing its pros and cons, I was able to handle situations that really taught me in making wise decisions. Happiness on the other hand is having those I think and feel that satisfies my needs and wants. Life is unpredictable; it's our choice on how to make the most of it so that we'll be happy and contented. Life without happiness is definitely boring and empty.

Happiness is a feeling. It suddenly pops up and you are aware of the fact you feel happy. What causes the happiness is not always clear. It can be something you worked hard for but also a few minutes you are without pain and really enjoying the sun.
I have a life, I also miss big parts of it since my health makes it impossible to live it completely. So there are days I just live by the moment and hope I will survive.
There are plenty of days I don't feel happy but I do feel satisfied and I think this is already special too.
It's impossible to feel happy every day and night.. if so you would not be able to recognize the feeling at all.
What life is about is if you are in balance, you as a person. If so it doesn't mind what happens to you or around you since your attitude, the way you look upon things is different.

Happiness is within you,you can find happiness when you are continted on your life.Too much wants can keep you out from being happy,when you have lot of things wanted in life.You can find happiness just by having your family on your side and spending time with them.Happiness will depend on us.
