Happiness is out there for everyone...you just need to grab hold of it with both hands and hold on for dear life.

no i am sad all the time i just lost my mother last year - she was my life  

Answer 3

I don't. I fake my smile and good sense of humour everyday - but I believe that one day I will smile and laugh from my soul! x*x I hope you do too!  

Answer 4

Not always sometimes you just dont want to talk to anyone or be apart of anything, you just want to be left alone.

Answer 5

Yes, but it has taken me 40+ years to work out what happiness really is!

Very content and happy now though.

Answer 6

i don't generally, and if i do get happy it doesn't last long at all. i have depression - i feel worthless, hopeless, i self harm and have suicidal thoughts. my mind just drags me down.

Answer 7

Yes, its easy for me to be happy. I guess its my personality. I can take a bad situation and just make the best of it.I believe that life is what you make of it.  

Answer 8

In this life nothing is simple. Happiness is an emotion, not a permanent state. It is difficult for most people to be satisfied, because they have no idea what they want and if they do know what they want they don't know how to find it. Most people try to find happiness in things that do not change, because they are afraid of losing themselves in the process. Truly the only thing that can make a person happy is if all their needs are satisfied. If they have their psychical,emotional and spiritual needs filled. Since there is no time in our lives when everything is perfect, it is a mystery how come some people could be constantly happy. What people must do is find a way to accept all the flaws in their life and let their anger and frustration go. Most people refuse to let go of the things that hurt them in the past so therefore they can't find peace. It is human nature that the closer things are to perfect the more we are satisfied with our lives. Some people find it easy to happy, but most don't. Most people have to struggle to find inner peace, because they are scarred in some way by fate. You are very lucky to be a person who finds happiness quickly. Some people don't have the luxury of having an option to be happy, therefore you must be grateful.  To me the most important thing in life is to be content with yourself and your surroundings. I'm not always happy, but no one is. You just have to take one day at a time and cherish the little things that make life interesting. Out of suffering comes light and out of pain comes knowledge. Hurting is just a way to find out what needs to change and what we need as people. Without pain, we couldn't recognize the times of great beauty in our lives. I have to say that I'm content with my life and that is something I can live with. I've been through much suffering lately and I feel pretty good now that I can say that I've found peace within my life. I can't say that I'm very happy, but that is just because I have yet to see everything that needs to be seen. Well...I hope that cleared a few things up for you about happiness.  

Answer 9

Not really...

I have OCD, so...it rules me...so its not the easiest thing for me to live with...being forced into submission by your own being...

But I can BE happy, sometimes, its just, I'm not quite sure WHAT it is yet...I think its sitting and watching hilarious videos on YouTube with my bros...and when I draw, too...

I'm not miserable, its just that I'm not great at explaining it...
