Of course at times we feel that another person's life may seem easier or better than our own. But what do you enjoy about your life? I enjoy that I made good decisions in my life when given the opportunity. That I had the privilege of marrying my best friend and that I have a precious child. That although I do have and face trials in my life I can still be thankful for so much.

@Iriene I agree with you. I enjoy spending time with my family. It is a really special time. Life can be gone in a flash. We never know when something might happen to us or our family. I agree as well that it is nice to travel with our family. We create new and special memories this way.

@j6face it is nice for us to look for upbuilding activities that can encourage the whole family. Taking part in recreation that encourages conversation and quality time together is important. This will strengthen the family bond in many ways. It is sad to see that so many families basically live separate lives from one another.

Our life is not a song and roses all the time and we have to use every chance we have to enjoy it no matter how little we find to enjoy right now. Life is short and we have to cherish every minute of it. For instance, my joys are simple but important to me - I have wonderful, supportive and caring parents, my husband is the best man I can ever dream of and I have the greatest daughter of all. These are my joys. Being unemployed is an ordeal but it can't make me feel depressed. I still find what and who to live for.

I agree with you. We should strive to enjoy our life to the best of our ability. Times will not always be easy. It's more likely to be the opposite with all that we have to face. I agree with you simple things that money can't buy is important and should be the most important to us. I'm glad that you don't let being unemployed get you down. I'm sure that your husband's support in that regard is appreciated as well.

Yes it is, thank you. He is working hard to support our family, and tries all he can to help me find a job. I work, actually, but for now at home, anyway I can earn online. It's absolutely not enough that's why I'm looking for a primary job, so that I can use working online only as an additional one.

This is something that it is important to reflect on I feel like, and if we don't make sure there are things we enjoy in life... Our lives are a shell of what they could be! It's a hard question to answer, though. I enjoy my friends, family, the weekends, relaxing, reading, traveling, writing, and going to school. I wish that I could work less (2 jobs) but that is part of my life that I cannot change unfortunately. Happy MylOTTING!

I agree with you! I enjoy a lot of the samethings that you do. It is important that we stop and enjoy our life. There are so many things that we have to do and those things can take our joy away if we let it.It's a good thing for us to remember what we like and want and life and to enjoy it. I hope that in time you will be able to work less. For me and I'm sure a lot of other people I wish I could get paid more per hour and that way I could work less

I agree with you. It is so hard for many people to be content. So they live their life always striving to get more going into a great deal of debt, and possibly ruining their health. When we are content our life is smoother because we are happy and can appreciate what we have without thinking we always need more. Often people learn this too late.

Yeah it is a good thing for us to go and visit family often. Since we moved about 45 minutes away from family (not purposely) we haven't been able to visit as often as we would like. But I hope that in time we will be able to get our savings going and feel much better about traveling great distances.
