Look good doesn't mean Lives good

Life is a package deal the good and bad rolled in one. It is not fair to make an assessment of anyone's life as most of it is not visible to others. The strength to bear the hardships, for example, could be classified as a blessing which is not visible to any one and so on.

true. there are alot of people who just look like they are successful, but they are not happy or comfortable in their own skin. i see that often, with people who wear business suits. there are lots of people in high professions that are miserable, because they feel trapped.

I am a mess in some things and pretty much decent in others. On the whole, I`m contented with my life. I have had joys and pains, have behaved fine and bad. But, who doesn`t? I have very good friends. I have asked myself whether it is luck of I have done something to deserve them. Who knows? I am rather smart (genes) and I have grown wiser with years (experience). And, of course, I`m working to mend my ways.But I`m not overdoing.

Satisfied people will be if they have what they want. A good mom/parent you can only be if your children see you that way. Since it's something you are not for you but to someone else. Most people are fake in this world so what is the big deal? Or should I say the issue of this discussion? The less people who are straight, honest, don't care about what the society says/thinks are not beloved. They are kicked out, back stabbed, we call them a curse on our society (unless we need them to improve our world).

i guess this will sound off-topic, but it makes me think of people who've won the lottery. i wonder how many of them would continue living simply like the rest of us so we don't know that they're actually megamillionaires who can stop working and when they grow old and die, there's still money for their grandkids to live on.

People put a lot of emphasis on looks and impressions nowadays. This is a sad truth. A person who looks good outside is considered more successful. We are judged a lot by the way we look and carry ourselves day in day out. We also cannot deny that a lot of people got to where they are today by looks and putting on a pretentious life. Our personal life matters only to people who are close to us and to God. Others don't really care what kind of person we are. So just be yourself.

People around me would often thought that I am lucky getting married to my husband. My in laws are well known here in the community and a lot would look up to the perseverance that both my in laws has. And they knew how they have struggled from being poor and became successful. But really, my family's life is not that fortunate although I do admit that we have better life because of them. But I'd rather want to be able to be independent and not to rely on them.
