I haven't felt truly happy in a long time and when I think about getting happier and having my life improved I sort of get a sense of guilt because I know a lot of people who have it very very rough.
do you ever experience something like that and why do you think that is
is it sensitivity or something else

Sometimes I feel guilty that things start to improve but other than that,I'm okay with my life because I know that I'm the one who has to allow me to find happiness and be happy.It is more of a sensitivity issue than it is of something else.

Happiness in the profound sense, is in the mind. You are the 'master' of your own ship. Feelings of guilt are normal for everyone with a healthy mind. Yet, you can 'right' the 'wrong', with the best ability....and get back on the 'positive thinking' guiltless life.
Remember:
There are two kinds of things in life:
1- Ones you can control and;
2-Ones beyond your control.
Those which are beyond your control, let it not ruin you for there is nothing you can do, however, what is in your control, do your best.....For a healthy life , you need both a healthy mind and a healthy body...guilt free... Thank you for sharing this thought with many others who feel this way...the short answer DON'T FEEL GUILTY ......

We must feel and have some passion with the others especialy nowadays where more than half of the people in this world are suffering from aids , abuse , hunger , neglected diseases , stress , extrem poverty and so on , so being happy my friend require a suitable settings that might not be available to all the people in your immediate surrounding , that is why you feel guilty when you smile at someting ,
There might be other causes for us to feel guilty , so if it is realy bothiring you you should see shrink .

Guilt is a waste of time and energy. Think before you act/speak. If what you are about to do or say will make you feel guilty, then don't do it! It isn't right for you.

It is sensitivity and it is not a bad thing - but you should certainly not dwell on it - your destiny is in your hands and if you improve then good for you - but you cannot carry the weight of the world on your shoulders.

Yes I have felt that way to, its not selfish to want to make yourself happy while others have problems too. You love others and your self right, so help others, but always help yourself too, if not you will be even less happy okay

Don't feel guilty.Accept responsibility for your own happiness,and be an example for those less fortunate.Each of us creates his own life.
