i don't know how other people think about life if they experience more happiness in life than pains although they don't have to sacrifice a lot of things to be happy. i felt that i need to do a lot of things or work on lot of things just to be able to have simple joys or happiness in life. maybe because of the big responsibility i have in my life that i don't get the chance to live the normal life that i wish. i did get old going through disappointments on daily basis and sometimes on the moment to moment basis. i noticed that people that i know have just normal life i mean though they have problems they still enjoy the simple life that i wish to have.

In my point of view, life has more happiness than pains. Cause at some point of your life, when you have overcome that pain that is giving you a hard time. You will just laughed about that. My teacher somewhat told me because of the discussion in vices "ang buhay ay pasayahan, hindi pahabaan" which means that life is not about how long will you live in this world, its about living life with joy and happiness. It's just a matter of appreciation, appreciate life remember you only have 1 lifetime to live. ^^, Godbless.

I think we all take our happy times for granted a bit, and that is why the bad times seem so intense, and when we look back and remember it depends what frame of mind we are in to what we actually think about, but it is the bad times that make us appreciate the good times.
