If you are truly happy with your life tell me why please?

Question

i dont know any honestly

Answer 1

simplicity.if people looked at things for what they were,and saw the minimalist beauty within it,it'd be difficult sometimes to not be happy.if you can look at something and see it's true function,how it exists,what it does,why,sometimes you'll be amazed.even something as simple as a tree.
it begins as a seed and as it gets older it will absorb sunlight and rain,making it grow even more.it could possibly have fruit for animals,provide shelter for those animals.and each year that tree is there it keeps at least one form of setient life alive.
you can look at the bond of somebody as simple as a friend,a true friend,and understand that they are not related to you,and don't have to be with you,but they are there because they choose too.
if you can see everything bare-bones,how it really is,without what people told you to think about it,or without any knowledge of it at all.and just saw it's simplistic beauty people could be much happier.
life is a paradox,don't waste time wondering how or why,focus on the one thing that matters,here and now.there is always something around you,always something happening,thus always a reason to find something to appreciate and be amazed by it.perception is what you make it.

Answer 2

How about what is wrong with your life? Happiness is in your mind and how you look at your life. Sure it would be nice to have the great career and own your own house and all that, but to me that would make me more frustrating to hear because I don't. I think your question should be about what what you do have. Appreciate and enjoy the simple things you have, maybe you don't have all that much but, I am sure you could have a lot less too. If you have a positive frame of mind you truly can do whatever you want to usually deciding that you can do it is the hardest part and being negative is a good way to go nowhere fast, stuck in a rut.

Answer 3

I agree with Reggie Girl. While most are lying about how fabulous their lives are because of their family and friends; it is far from true. As Americans, we are taught to lie on cue. When someone asks you "how are you doing," we immediately say "okay and you." When in truth, we know that is the appropriate thing to say regardless of our circumstances.

Being truly happy is internal not external. This is the very reason we cannot understand why rich and famous folk committ suicide. We say things like they should have been happy because they had so much to live for. True happiness is internal, and a skid row bum can have it. Family, Friends, money, and the likes can make you peripherially happy or content. However, it WILL NOT give you internal happiness. This is the reason folk turn to Jesus and beyond.

It is my goal to focus on the very things that can bring me true happiness or joy. One is temporal; the other is a way of life.

Answer 4

I guess we cant be happy all the time - we have to cope with the unhappy moments as well. So how do we cope - well I sometimes really get into the moment and visualise how special life is, it is, unique a one off- just wonder at all that's going on around, the people that are special to me, even strangers that interestingly come across my path from time to time- I'm so grateful for being alive in such an amazing place with such adventures and experiences both big and small. Life is like a holiday it has an end - respect it enjoy it. Be Happy.

Answer 5

I am truly happy with my life because I'm married to amazing, caring guy, I have a beautiful caring daughter. I own my own house I have a great career that is going really well, I have no money problems, no family problems, lots of friends. I have no arguments with any of my family or my husband..... I am truly happy & cannot fault my current life at all.

Answer 6

Happiness is generic, and is applied to almost every kind of
enjoyment except that of the animal appetites. It ia a state of
well-being characterized by emotions ranging from contentment to
intense joy. These include: bliss, joy, joyous, carefree,
jubilant, exultant, cheerful, playful, amused, fun, glad, gay,
gleeful, jolly, jovial, delighted, euphoric, ecstatic, thrilled,
elated, enraptured, comfortable, harmonious, and triumphant.
Societies, religions, and individuals have various views on the
nature of happiness and how to pursue it.

Only saint-like persons, who feel that they are no longer
interested in the external world, think that happiness is within.
For many persons, nothing can make them happy. Our minds are as
different as our finger prints - no two are alike. Listening to
loud music makes one happy and makes another unhappy. Hence,
there can be no single definition for happiness. It is probably
impossible to objectively define happiness as humans know and
understand it, as internal experiences are subjective by nature.
Because of this, explaining happiness as experienced by one
individual is as pointless as trying to define the color green
such that a completely color blind person could understand the
experience of seeing green.

As a state and a subject, it has been pursued and commented on
extensively throughout world history.

"Call no man happy till he is dead." - Aeschylus

"Happiness is a positive cash flow." - Fred Adler

"Many persons have a wrong idea of what constitutes true
happiness. It is not attained through self-gratification but
through fidelity to a worthy purpose." - Joseph Addison

"True happiness arises, in the first place, from the enjoyment of
one's self, and in the next, from the friendship and conversation
of a few select companions." - Joseph Addison

Happiness is often associated with the presence of favourable
circumstances such as a supportive family life, a loving marriage,
and economic stability. Kali Yuga, the age of darkness, is the
time when these favourables are difficult to find.

Unfavorable circumstances - such as abusive relationships,
accidents, loss of employment, and conflicts - diminish the
amount of happiness a person experiences. In all nations, factors
such as hunger, disease, crime, corruption, and warfare can
decrease happiness. However, according to several ancient and
modern thinkers, happiness is influenced by the attitude and
perspective taken on such circumstances.

From the observation that fish must become happy by swimming, and
birds must become happy by flying. Aristotle points to the unique
abilities of man as the route to happiness. Of all the animals
only man can sit and contemplate reality. Of all the animals only
man can develop social relations to the political level. Thus the
contemplative life of a monk or professor, or the political life
of a military commander or politician will be the happiest
according to their own psyche.

The following is the self-reported positive affect (i.e. positive
emotion) during the day by 909 employed women in USA:

Further, happiness is not entirely psychological in nature - it
has got a biological basis too. The neurotransmitter dopamine is
involved in desire and seems often related to pleasure. Pleasure
can be induced artificially with drugs. Use of drugs is not some
thing new, it has been used by many including Sanyasis since
millenia.
