Happy or angry.

What do you think of people who bring happiness into your life.
They are the kind of people that you want in your life.
I would hope most people want to be happy in their life.
But I have met some people who do not want to be happy.
Those people who do not want to be happy.
Seem to be always angry at something.
Why waste your life being angry and unhappy with everything around you.
Try to be happy with everything you have.
Life is way to short to be angry all the time.
Try to find something that makes you happy.
Not angry all the time.
No one likes an angry person.

I think that most of us gravitate towards people who have positive energy.
That usually means that they are a happy person.
I steer clear of the negative people who dwell on the things that do not go their way, we all have days like that, we just need to move forward.

I know, and I don’t understand the desire to not be happy. It feels so GREAT to be happy.
And I keep away from the negative Nellies. I don’t need the toxicity at this point of my life.

@jstory07 — it’s almost like Joe Btfsplk, from Li’l Abner, who always had that cloud over his head. They don’t WANT to be happy.

I can't handle the people who are constantly negative all the time. Those people often seem to have excuses for everything, and often they just seem to stop trying. It's hard to listen to.

I am now jsut what you can call content but happy when good things happen to me and then I thank the Lord, I believe anger is such a useless emotion,

Aye
I have met people who don't want to be happy, not sure I noticed if they were angry with other people or just with themselves.
Nothing can make them happy.
Life is way too short to be unhappy all the time

@jstory07 life is too short to be anything else aside from being happy.

I think I am generally a happy person ….
I do like being around happy people …..
Don’t get me wrong I can get a bee in my bonnet ….and have a good old moan, which usually makes me feel better …..but then I’m happy again ….like you say life is too short to be angry or sad …..

I agree, life is way too short to be angry all the time, Judy. Everyone surely has something that makes them happy, and they need to concentrate more on those things. So many people who are unhappy are what son and I both refer to as ''ranters''...people who just rant on and on about what they are mad about--and they never run out of things to be mad about.

It really is sad. I guess it's true that some people are just never happy.

Some have a very negative attitude to life in general.
They believe life has been unfair to them and others are plain lucky.
I am happy and contented counting the lucky breaks I had.
But one has to seize them than end up with a sour face!
I give out positivity even when I am hurting inside.

I would support someone being legitimately angry at something specific, because it's not good to pretend like everything is okay when it's not just to make other people comfortable. That said, yes, there do seem to be people who are just determined to be unhappy, despite having no real problems in their life.

@jstory07 I worked in Customer Service for Morton Salt for 10 years. When it s**wed and everyone wanted salt that same day, there were a lot of angry people; but they weren't friends of mine; so I brushed them off at the end of the day.

i always remember the smurfs and that grumpy one
still, on the other hand, if something troubles us and the other side keep on insisting it will be all right and smiling, without hearing out our story, maybe that's why people turn angry cause, they can't tell their own truth, they are forced to pretend. but, in general, i like being next to happy people, with positive energy. they are like magnets. Also, i remember some Buddhist saying that goes, You will not be punished for your anger; you will be punished by your anger so, we better watch out.

Some old people tend to be irritable and angry most of the time but I could understand where they are coming from. shrug...
There were times we somehow felt angry without any reason. Lol! it's just a sudden feeling. But what's important is we learned from it if cause troubles and hurt others.
If being angry consistently, ahhh! that's a different story. There should be hidden answer to that.
