Fortunatly people who are unhappy often do not realize how unhappy they are.
They may think happy people are stupid, so they feel glad that they are not happy, and by definition stupid.
They may be unable to enjoy, music, radio or television programes, and think that it is all rubbish, and feel superior to people who can enjoy them.
They may constantly bemoan the fact that every thing goes wrong for them, but they will put down their negativeness to being the truth, and they would believe they had more truth than all the stupid people.
So you can be miserable, but be glad you are miserable, because being miserable means you know the truth.
And miserable people would not choose to be happy if they could, so they must enjoy not enjoying life.

No offence intended, if I do - truly sorry. But to me, this although being a philosophy-style question doesn't make sense.
Becuase its like asking 'How can I eat carrots while I still can't eat carrots?' (example)
So, maybe I'm wrong...But thats left me a bit confused, never mind...
Now aside from that: When life kicks you to the ground, you have to accept and expect it. Ups, downs, highs, lows, confusion - all part of life! But..That doesn't mean you can't stand up again and regain your balance because, you can!
Use the negative emotions you've experienced to motivate you to want to enjoy life and change your situation. Tell yourself "Life doesn't have to be this way. I'm going to live every day as if its my last, and put some happiness back into my life". Set yourself a goal and set out to achieve it, meet new people - from all walks of life.
Take Care
Thank You x

There is no reason why you can't enjoy life. It's your choice whether you accept what you can't change and enjoy the rest.
The secret to happiness is not getting what you want, its wanting what you have.
When you have pulled yourself out of this emotional funk, you will have the confidence to achieve some goals, until the depression sets in again, then you work on being content with what you have again.

Change your environment unless your dissatisfaction is the result of self loathing. In that case, you've nowhere to go. So you must find some way to befriend yourself.
You are child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. Whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive him to be.

There's nothing that can stop you from enjoying life! It's yours! If you can't do it in a particular way, well find another way! Blend yourself to the positive things in life even though it is quite hard to find positive these days! :-) Well just keep yourself in a beautiful state of mind. Trust me, it does flow!
Thank you

You can enjoy your life simply by choosing to enjoy it. The power of the mind is an amazing thing. Each day make a conscience decision to enjoy the day and all that comes with it.

While you can't what? Do you mean while you are depressed or in trouble? People find enjoyment in all kinds of activities, interests and situations. But if you really have the black dog at the moment, sometimes it helps to remember that things change. You never can tell what tomorrow will bring.

?. sam..has ate to many fruit loops!
...just enjoy the fact you have a life is a start. the rest you must make enjoyable, its your life. Just don't get in my way, I have a full tank, fresh pack of smokes, and an open highway of freedom before me... The one with the most toys wins! ...so I've heard. And both of my stolen Harleys have come back home! ...and they say there is no God. ...losers

Change. Don't live in fear of change or anything for that matter. Don't wait for change to come make it happen. If your not happy it's your own fault, don't blame anything or anyone else. It's O.K. to be self center when your going through change, it's natural. Live strong.

You need to search inside yourself and find what makes you happy. Once you know what that is you need to work to attain it and start enjoying life!
