Are you really happy with your life you're undergoing now. Or is it in a 'take it for granted' way... or what?

I am not happy with my life right now.I don't know but there's nothing could make me happy.My life is a mess and there's someone I need to be here with me.But there are far apart and some are gone forever.There's a lacking in my life but I don't know how should I do to fulfill on it.I've been thinking problems all the time,I just wasted in my time in that.I used to live in fantasy just to be happy but I can't able to escape that fact that I am broken,alone and lonely.I really don't know make things good all I know is I need and I want them to sustain and give color in my life.I hope one day, I can able to give smile without hesitation and crying inside. I just wanna be happy that's all I want,it's very simply dream but very hard to achieve.

Dear Krieyszel, Happiness is not something comes to us from any external source, instead we have to find it within ourselves. Everybody in the world has so many good things to go with and few bad things as well. A world of fantasy and a world of reality both happens within you. Be cautious and find which is true and helpful. Fantasies have a short life like our dreams but anything real is real for ever. Materially/physically we have only two eyes, but we have other hidden eyes which we could make open to all sides. Or what we see in front of us through our eyes should make open our other eyes too. You're not alone in this vast world. There are many like you and there are many worse than you. Your look to upward will make you know how bottom you are and a look downward will make you understand how top you are. Wishing you all that's best. Thank you for the open response.

I am happy with aspects of my life. But, no, I am not completely happy with my life. I would like to have children, but we have infertility problems, which makes me very sad sometimes. I also don't really know what to do with my future. I had thought I would be a stay at home mom, but that doesn't look like it's going to happen. I worry a lot about what to do with my life. I have a wonderful husband though. He brings me much happiness!

Find happiness in what you have and do not get depressed in what you don't have is the best policy to be happy always. Look around you and find how people go with their lives. Some are happy with their kids and some are not. Some are happy with their parents or siblings or friends but some are not. My humble suggestion is to find happiness in what you're gifted with.

There are times I am happy with my life, the way things are going but also there are times I am not cause not everything is well. When someone is sick within the family, this makes me feel sorry. When someone that I love has to leave this world, I feel bad and down. But with all of these, I got to pray and everything will soon be okay. Thanks God, He's always there!

I am happy with my life. It would be wrong for me not to be. I am currently an online student working towards a degree. I just gave birth to my first child Dec. 23rd 2010. I have a wonderful husband. I currently dont have to work as my husband takes on extra hours so I can stay home with the baby and worry about my studies. Of course I would like for somethings to be different but I am working on changing those things. Such as a degree, more money since my husband and I "just" make it, a house. But those things take time. After my child is one I plan on getting a job towards my degree which will then allow some extra money for saving which then can come a house down the road. Life is a working progress and things take time. I just make a map and figure out how I am going to get there and do things to eventually get there.

Setting up goals in life is a right approach towards life. Remember at times things may not work as we think about it. So shall I take the permission to tell you that when you draw a graph towards heights only, sometimes you may be forced to go with lines downward. Don't get depressed on it and understand that a fall is just to inspire you to draw your life upward. Thank you for your openness.

I've been going through some hard times with my family and stuff but I think it has made me more aware of the great things I have in my life. I couldn't make it through anything I have been dealing with if it wasn't for my loving boyfriend. I think I had been taking the time spent with him for granted without meaning to. Realizing this has made me a happier person and thankful for my life and what I do have. Things could definitely be worse

Your intuitive approach towards life is something great and it would help you be precautionary, if you really want your life to be peaceful. Ups and downs form everyones life. Those who approach life with a dispassionate mind could overcome everything unpleasant in their life. Thank you so much for your response.

Generally speaking, I am happy with my life. I don't have any general major complaints. It is by no means perfect. There are certainly improvements that I hope to make over this year. Either way, I do like where I am now in my life, and I hope that it continues on the path that my life is going now.

Well my new resolution this year is to make more money online and start writing more content and to be on mylot alot more so i can make the payout on here each month. I was so busy i was not devoting anytime to online money making at all and need to put myself and my mind to working online at night. I have a laptop now and that helps me at night to earn of course. I am happy with life at times and times i am not. I dont work much so im trying to do as much as i can now online and hopefully this year will be a good year for me and i can get a house with my bofyriend who i would love to be engaged to this year. Have a great new year.

Hi there. I do not want to think of my life as 'unhappy'. Though i have a lot of not so good things going on in my life but I decided to leave it all behind and start anew. I had been in a constant struggle with my married life that made my life miserable the past 4 years but I kept on holding on because of my kids. I am still here because of them and I can still smile and laugh and feel love because of them. If I am to focus my attention and energy on them, I can honestly say that I am happy with my life despite of the occasional tears, of course.

In fact nobody would think of a unhappy life to go with. Your approach and attitude towards life is so promising and so practical too. Kids represents our future, our goals, our aspirations... and a smile at them means a lot to a life worth to live on. Wishing all that's best Eurekafemme and thank you for responding.

I am generally satisfied with my life. Of course there are times that I feel very happy and others that I feel like things just couldn't go any worse but that's life. I believe there is always room for improvement and I try to make that happen. Sometimes I'm not trying hard enough or at all but I am human and we all get our ups and downs. Right now I am not very happy because I'm sick and still I have to go to work. I fear that this will make my condition worse, but it's my first flu catch this winter so...it could have been worse.

Thank you Christinelle for responding. It's true that life is a mix of both happiness and sad and what one can do is to be hopeful always. When you feel depressed, bear in mind that there is some light to lead you to the other end of the tunnel. Have a nice time.
