are you happy ??????
some one asked me the other day if i was happy....though i have been asked that before, it got me thinking...
first off my answer to that question has always been,"who the hell is really happy anyways" i feel that happiness is a moment to moment feeling...not something that can be attained and held on to for a long period of time...i believe the most one can strive for is contentment....if your content than what more is there ?????
so now i ask all of you ...are you happy ? or am i just that screwed up ? ( i know the answer THAT question)

yes, overall I am a happy person, however my relationship has had some ups and downs.

I think your probably right.No one can be happy 24/7.We will always have to deal with sadness,disappointment and heartache.The best we can strive for is a equilibrium between Pessimism and Optimism.Too much of either can drive you insane.
For myself,I try to walk that fine line between happiness and sadness.Though since I'm only Human,some days I'm leaning more towards one or the other.

i agree that happiness is a moment to moment feeling. most of the time i'm happy but not always. and the funniest part is the things that make me happy most of the time, are the things that make me unhappy at the other times. or i'm just screwed up too...but aren't we all in our own ways?

I agree with the contentment idea, it leads to happiness. Yes I am happy because I choose to be. I am content too.

I'm happy. I figured out that if I just ask myself that question every once in a while, it makes me happy thinking that I'm more happy than not. You can decide to be happy or miserable. People just have to believe that and they can be happy every day.

Everything is the material world is temporary. I know that my sorrows and joys are all short lived and that as soon as one passes I can look forward to the next. Happy not Happy. I'm okay with that

at the moment, yes...off work and in my bed!
for the most part, kinda..i have two jobs and im still broke and just got outta a relationship that i thought was going somewhere. but other than that, i cant really complain. i have loving friends and family that are there anytime i need them. though im tired as hell, i like both my jobs

Happiness like any other feeling isn't constant...I don't feel happy all the time...that's a general question...I suppose I could be considered a happy person coz I'm not sad that often but I don't feel it 24/7...I'm human...thats kindof a simplistic question in my book...

I am happy and find contentment in whatever situation I find myself in. God bless****
