I don't think there are more sorrows than happiness. If you expect sorrow, it will be easy to find. Same with happiness.

Life is hard and full of tough times, sorrow and pain. However, without the bad times, we wouldn't appreciate the good times that do make us happy. I also think every trial we go through makes us stronger people in the long run.

it is a state of mind and not a reality...
when you are depressed, down and sad then you seem to hear and witness everything that makes you feel worse or that everywhere and everyone is suffering as you are.
when I was going through some really bad stuff a couple years ago I couldn't look at the news with out crying...it seemed like the world was crazy...and hurting
but now that I have gone to a wonderful thing called Landmark Education....I see that the sadness, and horror was within myself and I was radiating into my view point...this education had a weekend forum that gives you tools to overcome all the negatives we grow up with, live with and try to survive...I just wish I would have gone along time ago....things would have been better a lot sooner....oh and when I went there were 173 people at it: teachers, pastor, cop, and whoever and we all were there to find a better way to live our lives...so try it out its probably in your area...its on the web...

I believe that yes in life there is plenty of sorrow, but if you have a GOD in your life it feels a lot easier and less hopeless to guide to the happiness in the end!!

Human beings are basically hard to please so that people tend to endlessly chase that neon rainbow which no one seems to find unless if you decide otherwise. It means instead of delaying your happiness, you can choose to perceive things around you differently and be happy. Do not wait it to come lest you want to continue living a life in sorrow.

well first of all you should look at it in a different way! i find life refreshing even though there's too much to be sad about! maybe it's because people are too selfish to make anyone have a happier life. happy people and laughter are contagous especially from a friend. everyone's bound to have rough spots and super hard times but you HAVE to look at the bright sides or else you'll wallow inside the wax of a burning candle and soon it will end up hardening until you can't get out...wow that's a sad thought! but it just goes to say lighten up! :D

i think there are just as many good things in the world as there are bad just we take the good for granted and dwell on the bad things
