Are you happy?

so so...why?....are you happy?

 

[Melvil]

Life is one long torrent of pain and anguish from the cradle to the grave. Full of minor and major injustices, pointless upsets and grievous hazards.

You just have to ignore all of that and focus on the good bits. Like standing on top of a mountain that is mostly obscured by a layer of cloud. Below the cloud is all the bad stuff, all the horrible but necessary stuff. And above it is all the amazing stuff that makes life worth living. You need all the horrible stuff, because otherwise you wouldn't be standing so high, but you also need to rise above it.

Definitely. I have my health, a healthy family and we do loads of fun stuff. Works for me.

Most of the time I'm mostly happy.

I could tick any one of them depending on which day you ask me.

I am not happy at all, I have suffered with depression for around 10 years now and am really low at the moment

 

[Ravenz]

well they say money can't buy it...... I'd just like to test the theory for a few years to see for myself .. so can 'they' send me a few quid to start me off?? ...

Also suffering from depression and each day is different depending only lots of external factors. However, tomorrow my granddaughter Iona, aged 5 is visiting and she is infectiously happy. She has a glow and it never fails to rub off.

Would be very difficult not to be happy , life is to good

Underlyingly, I'm happy. Like a lot of people, I have a few demons I have to fight periodically and they do colour my world BUT my natural rested state is one of supreme content.

 

[cchapman]

I think happiness is illusory, or rather it is a combination of chemicals in the brain.

Yes I am happy despite having a tough year having to face a lot of demons and my mum deciding to turn my back on me when I stuck up for my nana.

This last few days have brought home to me how precious life is and how lucky I really am

Oh and if you want to know if I am happy then look at my sig.
