Question:We are just worlds apart : ) (sad smile)


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: We are just worlds apart : ) (sad smile)

Peer pressure and the economy are standing in the way!!

I'm happy when I don't have to carry money to feed the market like it was my pet that I should take care of. I'm happy when the darn thing has been fed for the day. I'm happy!

i dunno about you.. but even though i have all those drama and rollercoaster rides in my life, i'm definitely happy..

I'm happy! Why aren't you

Because you are someone who thinks "we" two unknowns need to be "happy" with each other. What if it took a compromise of my principles just to tolerate you?

Because of social wants! Everybody has wants but that doesn't mean that the world is capable of fulfilling everybody's wants! Money is also a factor! Money isn't everything! But if you have some you can probably make it in this world better vs. not having any! People will do anything for some money! Once again I know you heard it before 'MONEY IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL'!!

I am happy... contentment is the gift you give yourself-- it's like detoxifying, except you're removing stress...

dont a worry, be a happy. Dont worry be happy now.

Umm, I am happy. I like my job. I have a great circle of friends. I like the sunlight. I love the little town I live in. I've been divorced for 12 years and know that I function better alone.

But it took time to find my niche. I hope that with time, you find yours too.

The reason you might not be able to be happy is because of the way you worded this question. You have focused on the negative; what cannot be done as opposed to what can.

I am happy. I make the choice everyday to make my focus on the positive, on things that will progress me forward, not hold me back. I choose to be happy. I do things that will make me happy as well.

Peace

We could, Rocsi, but my wife might object!

Oh! that's because the happiness doesn′t exist, ít were only a invention from the policy and religion, a way of social control. and it keep us busy enough, searching, looking anywhere along our lifes. Leaving behind the really things that wort in life. And the people who thinks that are happy, let me wake up you, Are you rally happy or just try to presume that you are.

It is a real mystery isn't it. It has to do with learning to be a peace with yourself. Very easy to say and very hard to do.

Honey, I am happy. I don't hold onto sadness and worry. I let the past go and move on. If I can change myself or a situation, I do it for the better.
Why do you need to hang on to sadness? Perhaps you should work toward remaking your thinking so that you think more of positive things instead of being depressed.
Fill up the emptiness with love for yourself and acceptance for whatever situation you find yourself in.
These are hard lessons to learn. I understand, I've been there, too. But, YOU have the power to make yourself happy and make your life worth living.
