Being happy does not mean that your life is perfect!

I would have to agree with you about that statement one hundred and ten percent. Perfection is just a dream that is hard and nearly impossible to chance. There are going to be many mistakes on the road to life. It is rather frustrating to really obtain something like that. We're never going to be happy if we want things one hundred percent without flaws. I've given up the quest for perfection and just trying to just let things turn out rather well. We just need to take things nice and slowly, appreciate every little moment of time we have. They might not be the best moments, but even the most flawed moments have some value. It just depends on what you can get out of your life, and keep reaching for the stars. Just keep on going and eventually success will be obtained.

That is for sure, and so True. Often times people look at someone and think "Wow!! They are always so Happy. Everything must be going good." Maybe they are looking at someone who has learned to deal with their fears and smile thru them, or just trying to cover up everything in their life that is going wrong so that no one else will ask them about things. But personally it is often best to learn to try and Smile thru things no matter how Bad things seem to be in your life. If you can smile a lot it will help make your life go a lot better for sure.

Nobodies perfect and life can't always perfect too.Sometimes you wanna do something and hope it will perfect,but unfortunately you get bad result,and you think that's not perfect.You will get the lessons and experiences when you got unhappy thing and not perfect in your life.Cause someday you already know how to handle and fix that.This world is being various thing with all conditions.Not only with perfect life.

Very true! Being in an imperfect world does not have to make us all bitter. There are other things in life which are more important that we should focus on to.

There are people who try to find happiness even in pain, they learn to accept pain and live life happily because they have no choice. They don't wish to grumble about their situation, but choose to take what life offers them. There life cannot be called perfect. You are right being happy doesn't necessarily mean that your life is perfect.

There's no such thing as a perfect life though. Happiness is a state of mind like any other. Whatever you do to find happiness does not have to depend on how "perfect" your life is or not. That's great because if it did I would never be happy.

No one on earth has a perfect life but some can achieve true happiness .Perfection does not bring nor mean happiness and will more likely be boring . Life need excitement and surprises not perfection in my opinion . Ever watch desperate housewives , and you notice Bree .

Yeah, I don't think anybody has a "perfect" life, and even if they did they would be bored with that eventually. Meditation has helped me to be able to focus more on the positive things-it helps me be calmer as well.

As the saying says "if you think happy things, you do happy things".there are times that you have to show a poker face that you are happy even you are not so you won't affect your sorroundings.happiness is within yourself.you make your life. you drive your life. you know things that makes you happy and that makes your life perfect. doing the right thing.

Yes....being happy doesn't mean that your life is perfect because maybe you are just embracing the day's happy moments that God has given to you in order for you to forget your pains and sorrows in life!

I am not sure if I can be really happy in the case that my life would be perfect.

Yes, you do have some point. People are tend to happy when they can focus on the bright side of while do not give too much consideration to the dark side. As a Chinese saying that goes "a contented mind is a perpetual feast".

Happiness is a choice.Nobody is perfect.We don't have to be perfect to be happy because happiness could even be found in simplest form and aspect of our life.

Definitely. Being happy is when you learn to cope with the good and bad things that you come across in life and learnt to accept it no matter what.

I believe both happiness and perfections have their own level of satisfaction and they are both relative what makes one happy may not be the same to another. and perfect thing for someone may still not be satisfactory to another. Happy mylotting!
