What part of life that actually makes you think that you enjoy life? Is you family that your wife, husband, children or your work, friends, sports, environment etc? The best of part my life that I think I enjoy life was when I find a job that pays me good me where I can feed my family and go out to movies etc, makes me think I enjoy life. It is when I put quality food on table and new clothes on my wife and children and when I bring smile to their faces, it gives me satisfaction. This is where I think I enjoy life. Share yours.

I think you so blessed to have a good hubby and may be because you are good to him and that respect comes back to you- marriage is mutual. This is what many young couples look forward to their marriage to have a nice and enjoyable marital life and many rarely find them and The foundation to stronger society and nation is family, and for a stronger family and hubby and wife should enjoy the company and presence of the each other. Please maintain that life. Good on you and best wishes.

hey jak what you said really moved me a lot, u r an excellent husband and good father, u r doing ur best and enjoying ur life so much. I totally agree with u, I believe family hamony and good careers are the real sources of happiness and make us enjoy life to the fullest. My bf and I care for each other and we both happy and satisfied for being with each other, what's more, both of us are working hard, to pay the bills, to afford for the houses, to care for our parents, and to realize our own values---the sense of achievement. We both need each other's accompany, and we both need to do good in our own jobs. That makes us satisfied and happy, completely. from waazula.com

Living a nice life does not have to be based on money. I agree that money provides comfort and makes your wishes come true and definitely helps to make life easier and better. But surely the most important thing that makes life worth living is loving and being loved.

That is exactly true, if you have someone who love and you can return that love- you are on the way to enjoyment, at least. Love and especially from family is crucial to happiness in life.

Having the ability to wake up each day - feeling free, healthy, happy. Knowing that regardless what happens, the day is mine to make and I will survive. Food in my cupboards, roof over my head, free from unexpected threats or fears and the ability to do whatever I choose. Having my dogs next to me and remind me that the purpose of life is to be and not to do.

I loved your answer, Jak. I love to see my family and friends, talk with them, maybe go to the movies once in a while or to eat out. In this moment I´m full of expectations as I am about to be a grandmother again.

I am too about to be a grand father and I enjoy to be with my children and now my children together with my daughter inlaw. I try to make them happy and enjoy seeing smiles on their faces make me float.

Family is what helps me to enjoy life. Without them my life could not be as rewarding and fulfilling. My family is the joy that lets me see what is important and how to enjoy it.

Family seems to be the most important and I find this rather impressive. I do also think family support adds happiness to stressful modern life and you find that too. Please maitain that support from your family and also give back them your love and care. Have a nice day

As far as I am concerned, I think the most I like in my daily life is just surf the Internet online to help me feel more happy. I think it is a nice choice for me to search online . For online, I can watch what I want and read what is interesting to me. With the help of the Internet, I have enjoyed so wonderful a life . This is what I can most in my life. Have a nice day!

Is that what you do to enjoy, I seem to think the same way, I take my children to my office and we surf together and I like them search information on children's channels and enjoy the information. Be careful you might become addicted to the internet and ignore other family times. Have nice day!

Money does not necessarily bring happiness, see in my other discussion, I always wanted to be a lawyer and thought that being a lawyer would bring me lots of money and I would enjoy life. the fact, is I am not a lawyer and I have just put behind this thought and accept who am I am and love my work and enjoy the things I have. The most important thing I have are my family. I spend time with them to see life is not that bad. I alway enjoy time with my children, especially watch TV program 24 in our home. That is the enjoyable time of my life.

WHile my jobs are keeping me really busy, but i still enjoy my life to a certain extend. I do enjoy my work, beign able to learn new things every other day. Helps me on self reflection as well as gaining exposure. I might be tired with all the shuttling, but when i think about my future, i will be smiling away. I'm working hard for the future, and it's all right to suffer now, because i'm still young. I won't want to regret in the future.

Regardless of who we are , we share one commonality- humanity -that is why we go down to family where we find in the basic of all- family love and care and that is where we can enjoy life. You seem to do that during weekends and that is good. Keep that up and enjoy life- we live only once.

Hi there Jak 2010! I believe that it is my family who makes me enjoy life. It is like everything-the hardships, the problems, the challenges- are all worth it when I see them happy and safe. And also, how I was given the ability to touch lives-somthing that is common to all of us.

Hi, anayangel, I too believe that having a loving and a kind family make you enjoy life. Whatelse you have may trun aginst you or they may give you short term enjoyment. I have four children who make my life so enjoyable as they are my source of strength. Their mother, on the other hand seems to be hard woman, but we are togther for 24 years.

Enjoying life I would feel if the people around me happy, and I can do anything I want.

Yes, indahfth, I feel the same that is why I try to help people to see their smiles, but the fact is I cannot do it to all. What makes me happy is at least I can make those who are close to me happy and I enjoy it.

I am like you in a sense that I also try to work hard for my family to put food on the table, clothes on their back and a roof over their heads. And of course I like to see their faces, their smiles when I achieve these everyday goals too. But the part that makes me think that I enjoy life are the few moments that I have to myself after achieving these goals. And unfortunately, these moments are too far in-between.

What makes me think that i enjoy life is everything around me. My family, my friends, my boyfriend, my job, unlike yours, don't pay well but i do enjoy working here so everything is just good for me. I would enjoy life much better though if all my prayers are heard, but lets not make things negative..God has plans and so lets just enjoy the life that we have now. Happy MyLotting :)

God does want our lives to be enjoyable. Whatever small things God gives us that makes us happy these are our answers to our prayers. We do not need to look for something big.Enjoy your life and God bless.

For me having peace on a day to day level outweighs most other things. I can handle being short of money or not having much to do but I can't stand when I have to spend time sorting out troubles. I'm lucky to have a loving partner and we are doing ok but not rich by any measure. To know me and her are safe and won't be disturbed by anything bad (that can possibly be avoided) is the thing that makes me think we are doing ok :)

Whatever it takes to be happy, should be priortized. Maintain that relationship with you patner becuase make your life enjoyable or at least you two feel content. Peace is not just absence of war, but wholesome, feeling being loved, wanted, secured and provided. please maitain that relationship. Good luck.

hey jak! that's cool how you enjoy your life. it's true that the simplest pleasures are the best. for me, i know i'm in a good place when i'm with my husband, sharing a laugh together, dining together. i also like the feeling whenever i'm able to send my parents small gifts every now and then, reminding them to have a date for two.. hahahah! these simple things make me feel good. :)

Beingweel, hi, These are not simple things. They are big things as they touch our lives and we feel there is reason to be alive and surrounded with those people we can be touched by them and touch them. I also like to send some money once in a while to father in my village that he use it and shows off aroung. This makes me feel so good.
