Happiness.......

Happiness, to me...is not that everything is perfect, but that nothing is pressingly wrong.
 
I heard it said that happiness is when your thoughts, actions, and words are in harmony. If you think about it this is pretty much true. All the unhappy times in my life I've experienced were very unharmonious in all three of those main areas.
There have been times where I haven't been honest with a single person in my life and had no close friends and my family was so distant from me.
I'm currently quite unhappy as my general mood, though I have been doing what I can to try and nget away from this. I hate depression and lonliness.

Id subscribe to this for sure, it makes alot of sense! :)

Hmmmm? I wonder if you hated someone, thought of punching them (and were secure about that thought), Smacked them a mighty clout and told them to 'Go Fuck all their relatives!', would you be filled with Glee?! ;)
I must try that experiment out a bit! :D
 
Happiness is a lack of saddness, fear and anger.

The image of happiness, is a strong golden sun, blue skies, clean water, air that smells like nature and beautiful cherry red lips.
 
My current life. I don't think I could ask for anything more, really. My happiness at this point in my life has only been highlighted when compared to my past in which I was very unhappy and struggled constantly.

What has made me so content? I have been sober for over two years, there was an end to not one but two toxic relationships (a friend and a boyfriend), and I began surrounding myself with successful, driven people whereas before I was associating with people who couldn't care less about their futures, their families, or anything really. I met the man I'm going to marry and we have been together for a while now. We don't fight, we laugh constantly, we make great house mates (whereas I was fed up with previous roommates and partners), he has great friends who are also doing well for themselves, he has an amazing career, he's brilliant, handsome, talented, he makes me want to better myself, he treats me the way I deserve to be treated (like a goddamn queen because I'm awesome and I didn't realize this until recently :P), etc. I started going back to school after dropping out to move back home [so I could be with an ex] and I am about halfway through my college education at this point. I'm working towards becoming a homicide detective (of course I'll have to be a cop first but that's okay, I can handle it and I promise I won't be an asshole cop :P). I'm doing all of the things I ever wanted to do: Living sober, traveling a lot and seeing new places, meeting amazing people, I've made amends with my family--especially my parents after years of distrust--and I'm selling my art which is really amazing to me. I'm healthy for the first time in a while too (I have epilepsy and I don't have seizures often anymore--only when I miss taking a dose of medicine--and I have been cancer free since I was 18, so about five years).

So yeah, where I'm at right now is what I consider happiness for me. I thought on this for a while and I couldn't come up with much else that I want in life at this point (not to say that I'm done living or working towards goals, I'm just saying that I'm set for a while!). I stared at that blinking cursor where letters should be popping up from the left side of the box to the right and I simply couldn't come up with anything else :P
 
I asked my seven year old son what makes him feel happy. He said mommy and daddy, sis sis and Peyton his best friend, and laughter makes him happy..
I know for me is seeing the hell I been through and where I am now. When my wife and me and the kids can all laugh together at something, I mean a good belly laugh. When it's all said and done with. I think about it and I'm happy, but when I think of my happiness I feel sad most of the time too.
I wish my father and mother and brothers were here to share it with me. I know it's a lot better when you have some one to share it with..
It's all a state of mind.
