How you can generalize you in this respect? are you some who takes life very seriously? or you are just like who is someone who takes life lightly. How do you react when problem comes in life? Do you think you need to be more serious in approach.

I say I'm in between. I'm not too serious, not too lax either. I deal with serious matters maturely and I laugh at myself too. When I have problems, I look at them lightly and when I find solutions, I sit down and think about it thoroughly. That's how I go through life.

while I try to maintain a happy mindset I find that I am a serious person. I do not treat most things with frivolity. I reckon I am a comfortable medium in this that I am perhaps nearly a balance of both - however, leaning slightly more on the serious and analytical side.

i am an empty minded person, ready to face whatever that comes in my life. i do whatever i enjoy in life. even if i am serious about something ... i enjoy being serious on that particular thing or i won't do it in the first place.

I try to stay in both areas. When things are meant to be serious I take them as such.

I do take life lightly and I like to laugh alot. But there is time when you must be serious about your life. But that doesnt mean you cant have fun and enjoy life.

I am always the serious type person. I am the one who is always trying to figure it all out and make the plans for the future. I always take life seriously because things are getting worse daily. I get very nervous and upset when things go wrong in my life because I have to figure out how to make it through them all. My husband is hardly ever serious but he does make me laugh once in a while and that is kind of nice because I am always stressed out.

Unfortunately, I would find myself in the middle. I'm a happy-go-lucky person and at the same time a serious one. There are times that I take problems seriously, and there are times too when I take them as life's joke. However, I always end up making the right choices (because everything we do is right!). Well, it's nice if you're both because you won't enjoy life's variety if you just generalize yourself into one category. Most importantly, we shouldn't be so serious about life. Things may come and go, but we would be happier and be more successful if we enjoy everything we do. :)

I'm neither, subha. I'm a person who tries to stay in the middle in this aspect. But I do try to be an optimist at all times, especially when I need to handle and face a problem. I believe that in order to get along with what life has to give us, we need to mix the two, seriousness and living a life lightly. Too much seriousness may make a person feel that life seems dull and trying to enjoy the simplest things may be a bit difficult. And that being said, when a person who seems to look at life very lightly, can find himself at an awkward situation when presented with dealing with life at a different angle. An angle that's an ufamiliar territory for him. My family have always looked at me as the "family clown", second to my brother who's the ultimate "family clown". We hold these respective titles because we always seem to make our family members laugh and smile. We tend to help a particular difficult situation, a little lighter, thus, making it easier to deal with. But they all know that when it comes to serious business, my brother and I never hesitate to let go of our "clown" titles and deal with what has to be dealt with accordingly.

I'm all about spreading the love and laughter. So I guess you'd say I'm a happy person. I like to be happy, I like to make other people happy. But life is not all about fun and games all the time, so I also know how to take the right things seriously and bahave accordingly. Life is about balance. And balance is a mixture of happy go lucky with a large measure of responsbility thrown in.

I have been rational in my approach towards life. I am neither too serious, nor too light. When problem comes in my life, I try to solve it with a level head. I have never over reacted to any problems in my life as far as I know. This have helped me in my past and is helping me a lot in the present too.

if someone is a happy go lucky type of person, it does not mean that he is not serious about life. it only means that he knows why things "are" and why things happen.so, he just take things lightly and this is called managemnent. when someone is trying to control everything around him then he is the kind of person who is not realistic about life. I am a happy go lucky guy because i know everything will be alright.

Hello dear subha. In general, I could be either serious or happy-go-lucky-type person. It depends on which respect is concerned. I am serious in my life and career, especially when there is something great or critical for me to make a decision on. I could be happy-go-lucky when many general things are to happen to me. In all, it all depends how things get on with me. Thanks.

I am an open , frank and a jovial person, a happy go lucky type you can say. But when the problem strikes, i get serious for sometime till that shock passes away but then again . My Father used to call me an Hail storm. I get angry and next will start screaming and end up in crying , which will get over with in minutes or so maybe seconds in some cases. Suddenly I smile and it is very easy for me to get over trifles like this. That's why my father had named me like that.

I am more of a serious type of person in most cases as my friends also attest to that. But I have learned sometimes to take it easy but depends on the situation. I try to enjoy life as much as possible now as I sometiems go by the rule that whatever happens, it will all come to pass.
