We all have our happy moments and the sad ones. But Id like to know what was the happiest moment in your life. I think for me it was when I held my son in my arms for the first time. My heart just swelled with joy and happiness, the love that emmerged from me for this little soul enveloped both of us. Its was a moment in history for me. What about you guys?

Whew, you must be all brains to study medicine, and I can just feel the moment when you must have known you have been accepted for medicine. Such moments are rare and very precious. Good luck and cheers.

Hi Ketty, Well if it is real happiness I had that for the first time when I got my Metriculation Result. I was the first boy in my class but I was relatively weak in mathematics and the paper did not go well. I was not so sure what would be my percentage of marks. I was at home and after lunch was on my bed and my father brought me the result and knowing that I passed with first division I could not wait any more and rushed to school and seeing my percentage I was so exited so exited that literally I could not sleep well that night as the excitement was still there. U will never ever forget that moment in my life.

Yes, as a young boy, your results must have been very very important to you and knowing you had passed with a first grade, is like icing on the cake. Such moments are precious and can never be forgotten. Clever clever boy ! Are you still very smart. lol.

Yes we all have sad and happy moments in our life. I belong to a broken family and I worked early at young age. To be honest I never had the happiest moment that I can think of. If I'm happy it's only fleeting It wont last long.

I am sorry twice over, one for answering to you so late and the second for your lonliness in life. Do not give up on hope. Happy days will come to you, just wait and watch. You must have been pretty young to start work, and this experience along with the one you had as a kid with your family will make you a better person. You will now understand the meaning of family and money, so you will be a better parent and know the importance of money too. I just know happiness is round the corner. When she visits you, grab her with both hands and keep her safe. Dont give up hope, friend. Life will smile on you pretty soon. My prayers are with you.

Hey, Well I have never really had many happy moments in my life, and if I have, I can't really remember them which would mean that they weren't really happy moments in my life. I feel really happy for hearing your happiest moment in your life! Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!

Happiness is how we measure it. If you compare it with someone who is richer or better off, than you will never be happy. If you count your blessings and compare it with the less fortunate, you will know you are better off. Do not give up hope. You will be happy and I just know it. Keep smiling and God Bless.

I've had a lot of happy moments too. I thought my wedding day was the happiest. But after the wedding, you dream about having babies and my husband and I waited more than two years. So far, the happiest moment for me was when the strip of the pregnancy test kit I used gave a two strip result saying it was positive. I used it at three AM when I got up to pee and when I saw the result, I couldn't go back to sleep. I was very excited to announce it to everybody....my husband (who is away) my family and friends. Now my baby is almost 4 months and I can't wait to have him/her in my arms. Maybe that again would be the happiest moment and as time passes by, another phase, that happiest moment will be replaced by another happiest moment.

So very right irislee. Our happy momnets keep changing. I can just feel the excitement when you realised you were pregnant. Its the most awesome moment of our lives, especially when we've waited for years and years. Did you mean your baby is four months old, means you are four months pregnant. Yes, holding the little wonder in our arms is one of our biggest achievements and happiness knows no bounds. Good luck and have a very healthy baby.

I'm still 4 months pregnant! I'm excited if the baby is going to be a boy or a girl because I don't know yet... It doesn't really matter whether it's a boy or a girl, I just hope and pray that the baby is going to be healthy.

The happiest moment in my life for now is when I found someone who can truly accept me for who I am. These days, it's hard to find someone who can understand you. And open-minded person that will trust and support you in any way. For me, I can't ask for more, I have him and I believe he loves me and we will be together in time.

Thats wonderful news dexterous, and Im sure this love will be based on understanding and acceptance. When a person accepts you for what you are and understands your views, you have found the right mate in life. Good luck always.

Ah, the words of a true mom. Yes, the feeling repeats itself tenfold times each time we hold our newborn in our arms. I know the feeling and can connect with you. These are precious moments and will stay with us forever.

The happiest moment in my life was when I knew that there's a lot of things here in world that unexplainable. And even if you don't don't know the answer to your question you still keep on believing that this is real life. I still keep smiling, after all of this problems.

I guess what you are trying to say is that once you accept God will and embrace it with both hands, then you are the happiest person in the world. Very philosophical and very mature. Good luck.

Yes, when we are kids and enjoy a holiday, that becomes one of the happiest memories of our time. Must have been a great holiday for you and the memory is one which lingers on and on as a very happy memory.

The happiest moment of my life was when I realized how much I love my partner. I've never felt anything that would equal what I felt then. It was like I was floating. I've never felt more alive.

My happiest moment in life is when I gave birth to my son. Seeing him for the first time was the best experience ever. I felt so happy but at the same time tired. Spending time with my son is also included as the happiest moments in my life. It is all worth it.

Yes, a mother lives another life after giving birth to a child. I know, for I too had sufered all night and by the time my son was born, i was bone tired. I could hardly open my eyes. They put me to sleep and after I was back in the ward and woke up did I actually hold my baby. Yes, these moments are all worth it. Children bring so much joy to us.

It is fun when I try to think about the happiest moment in my life: I just can't. A lot of things appears in my thoughts but I'am not able to choose one of them. Probably because I didn't had any moments like the moment you held your son for the fist time. :) :) :) :) :)

Thats perfectly OK. When one is happy all the time, hopefully, you cant think of one single happiest moment. Thats wonderful and may you always be happy.

I think that the happiest moment in my life was when I was playing baseball and I was up to bat and it was the championship game. I came through by hitting a walk off homerun that once us the cahmpionship. This was probley the best moment in my life and I wish that I could put this on a TV and watch this everyday. I always keep this moment in my mind because this is every baseball players dream.

Wow, the team must have gone crazy over and over again, you must be their pet at that time and with your hit, you won them the championship. Must be a wonderful moment and Im sure you wish it was videoed, so you could keep that memory alive on screen as the years go by. But the one in your memory will always be alive and keep you feeling great when you remember those days.

Yes kety you are a real mother. Mother's best gift from God is her child. After nine moths of anxious waiting mother get's her first child. I feel a mother's joy. As a father it's also my happiest moment when I got my daughter the only child of us.My sad moment was when I lost my mom. I think the bond of mother and child is the deepest.
• India

Oh yes bhanu, this bond between mother and child is amazing. It strengthens as the years go by. Yet Ive seen children treat their parents so badly, keeping them in homes, away from family, or just not looking after them. Must be ever so painful to the parents after all the love bestowed on the child. Blessed are those who look after their parents and miss them when they are gone.

Happiest moments happen here and there in our life time.I felt more happy recently when I got my requested money from paypal to my bank account.Even though,it is a small amount,I was very happy as that was the first ever online money I had in my hands. I can understand your motherhood when you held your first son.For me,I was spell bound with surprise when they brought my daughter to me from the operation theatre.Cheers!

Hi sr. Must be a wonderful feeling. Now help me out too. You are from India too. So when you requested the money in your bank account, did the bank accept it in dollars or you had to have them converted with paypal. I havent touched my account yet so Id like you to guide me too. Yes when our children are born, they leave us spellbound and amazed at Gods creation. Do let me know.
