And they will live happily ever after. Every fairy tales has a happily ever after in the end and many people say that in real life it does not exist. Maybe they have a point but for me I believe that we also have the guts to experience such happily ever after and guess what, I am sure that someday I'll experience it in the end. Wanna know how? As a Christian, I already dedicated my life to God and I already accepted Jesus Christ in my life. As I accepted him I know that he'll give me a very Happy ending. This happy ending will not happen here on Earth but in Heaven. It is true that when your life is with God, HAPPILY EVER AFTER will be a reality. Now the question is, do you want to experience such ending?

I think so..
it's up to us to look our life as it is a happy life..
i think most people that says that Happily ever After does not exist are those people that has their dream failed and just stop believing because they think it will fail again..
for me it's up to us if we like to experience it, if we are pessimistic of course we will not experience it because we are not looking for it, but if we will try hard looking for it, i'm sure that we can experience that Happily Ever after experience..

Hi zedrick: I think that's a good reason why some people just don't beileve that happiness can be real. That's sad because when you lose hope you simply don't know why are you fighting for. I think we don't have to wait for a Happily Ever after experience but to work for it. We have to remember what's our purpose in our lives and things always happend for the good of those who beleive in HIM. Thanks for your answer. Have a nice day.

That's right, there are instances that I also curse life for giving me too much burden. A happy life really depends on how we cope with it and on how to move on in such failures. We will really not be happy if we decided not to be. Happiness can be witnessed inside us but of course to every happiness there is also sadness. These two comes together. Life is not only for us to be happy. Well, Let's just keep on searching for happiness with our Lord and I'm sure we'll find it.

Yes but if you'll live your life with God you'll experience a happy ending in the end not here on Earth but in Heaven. :)

Yes I agree with you 100%. You will have an unending happiness and joy with God in heaven. And that will happen only if you will repent of your sins and receive Jesus Christ as your personal Savior.

welcome to the wonderful world of mylot che. well i guess there are no happily ever after but you can try to make one of your own. if you are satisfied with our partner no matter what ups and downs you have as long as you are always together and supporting each other then i can say thats a happily ever after. being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect. it means you have decided to look beyond the imperfections. i am married with my wife for 7 years now and we have a 4 year old son. and for me i can say that this is my happily ever after.

I believe in happily ever after but its not in a religious way. We all have dreams and wishes that we want in life. If we achieve this things happily ever after is a possibility but if we don't its not. Happily ever after for me is about achieving your goals, dreams and wishes in life and its very much a reality for everyone if we all work hard for it n_n.

Hi chelleshey: I have no doubt that I want to experiment a happyly ever after and almost everybody is working for it in their own ways. I'm happy to know that you beleive in Jesus Christ and he makes part of your life. This is something very important to know how to look for your real happiness. I think that happiness began here on earth and of course we are working for something that last forever: HEAVEN. But we can enjoy when we work to make a better place, to help the others, loving someone and doing what Jesus teach us. I think that happy endings they are not only real but they are our objective, to look for them and work for them. Thanks for starting this discussion. Have a nice day.
ALVARO.

I don't think happily ever after in the fairy tale sense exists. I think the best we can hope for is what my folk singer/English teacher friend Bob Blue said in one of his songs: The happily ever after life was not the kind they got, but they tended to be happy more often than not.

Well, fairy tales don't exactly say happy 24/7 for the rest of their lives, do they?
I believe happily ever after exists... it just means "quite happy most of the time", lol

Happy can only exist because unhappy exists. Light only makes sense if there is such a thing as darkness. Up is meaningless unless there is a down. I'm not saying that a person can't find happiness for the rest of their lives, but that's not the same as saying they will be happy at all times for the rest of their lives. That is unattainable. Strive to be happy, but understand that there will be times when you're not. As long as you don't get stuck there, you'll see happiness again, and so forth.

Hi , It is there only in fantasies and story books and also in our imagination.We all want to have that state in our lives, but practically it is impossible to live happily ever after.All the problems start after marriage and so how can anyone think of that?There is a saying that After marriage love vanishes through the window while problems come through the door ...But still it is nice to keep hoping for happiness at different stages of our life.

Happily ever after does sound like a dream that is too good to be true. I believe in true love and soul mates. I have to believe that happily ever after does exist.

For me I am not focusing on the ending just yet. I am more focus on me and my family being happy right now and in the near future. I hope it will be forever after and I will work on it so that it will.

Yes Why Not!!! It happens to many but not to me, lol. But I am not bitter. I have my own happy ending sooner or later in God's time.

There is no happily ever after in this worldly life.Yes you are right it can be here after whcih is heaven provided one do good deeds and follow the true religion.jesus(peace be upon him)is the prophet and one of the mightiest messenger of god.Jesus said "i can do nothing of my own as i hear i judge".This proves that he is also bound to will of god.Follow the prophets but worship god

i think a happy ever after depends on what the individual wants their life to become. what i mean is that when i am married and have kids and my career sets off that is my happy ever after similar to the disney films

Happiness is no more than a choice. You should already be happily ever after your choosing so. As for the afterlife, everyone will know God's unconditional love that heals all hurt. However, there is so much to learn and experience. God's children will have a complete education. It's going to take much more than one lifetime.

Happy ever After, depends on the individual. If they realize that happy ever after is they live happy with contentment. Then that is called happy ever after for them. Me, my happy ending is when I realize that I already have everything in this lifetime. Of course I also accept God. Since Im a christian too.

First let us define HAPPILY EVER AFTER? In means you'll never ever get unhappy ever again. I don't think that is possible. Maybe today you get what you wanted your whole life, but tomorrow or the days after that or sooner or later, you'll be unhappy again. Maybe if you are admitted in metal institute, with a a condition of being insane due to happiness. Or maybe you die happy, but nobody knows what really happen when we die.

Everything is our imagination based on our faith.
HAPPILY EVER AFTER is a good concept and nice to digest.
If we don't have such a concept, nothing could have lead us to go forward.
Believe, have faith in what you learned and experience, you will get salvation, ie HAPPYILY EVER AFTER.
Best of luck and regards,
God bless you.
Thank-s
