How happy are you really? Are you happier today than say 5 years ago? Do you feel you are finding happiness easier as you get older? I am just curious as to the happiness out in the YA group.
Thanks for the answers. Good night.

happiness is about time... happiness is a journey.
Me, well my fiance left me last week after 4 years, my mother is dying of cancer, my boss is being an assh*ole to me - so with all that in mind - i was alot happier five years ago. But who knows maybe next week things will change.

That's a pretty general question there. Just happy overall, huh? Yeah, I'd say I'm content where I'm at. Honestly though, I think it's hard for a lot (Notice I did not say ALL.) of people to be happy and STAY happy. People these days want MORE, MORE, MORE. Some may argue this viewpoint, but if you think about it, it's true. Why else would people aspire to get a higher paying job, a bigger better home? The grass is always greener on the other side and people are trying to keep up with the Jones'. I somewhat fall into this category, but as I mature, I'm TRYING to appreciate what I have and enjoy it.

yeah i am a lot happier than i was 5 years ago. happiness is easier as i get older b/c i know how to make myself happy. ever since i gave my life to Christ, everything has gone from okay, to great. Im a straight A student with a 4.3 GPA, im in the church choir and school choir, and i have many many friends. sure, i still have the normal teen trials, and changes that i would like to make in my life but, overall, yeha ... im really blessed and happy.

honestly im not - trying to cope up with life and trying to be happy is the right word for what im feeling now
its hard to attain happiness if i think we look for something deeper than what this life can give us
so many questions in mind - so many things to think about
like what's is the real purpose of life? il ask this later and see what answer will i get
all we need to do is just hang on and live with it - and try to enjoy

Happier all the time, although I suppose there could eventually be an upper limit. Age does wonders for perspective.

Same, but getting happier as I get closer to being in law school and getting more films under my belt.
