There are times when I wan't more. I have everything I can ask for. God has been good too me so I should not wan't more. I have my family, we are all healthy, I have children, my mom lives with me, I am finally going to school, we have a roof, food, clothing. I don't really need anything else. So you can say YES I am happy!!!

Title: Are you happy?
Posted: 3 months ago

I am happy.  Whilst I have a lot to be "unhappy" about, I still manage to find the joy in my world.  Two of the greatest things in my life that make me happy, are my kids.  That is, afterall, what life is about, isn't it?  Seeing ourselves mirrored in our little people?  If they're happy, then you know that you must be doing something right as a parent.

I am also happy that my Mother is alive and well and that my Grandmother is alive and well also.  Those two women have passed so much along to me.

I accept the things that I cannot change and instead of being bitter, I've learned to make (as my hubby would say) tangy margaritas out of the sour moments.  Afterall, life is too short.

I am ultimately happy. I do have my moments when I look at things and just see the lemons, but then it is so boring being unhappy all the time. During my time at work, I can see so many unhappy people. I don't want to waste my time with my son by being so unhappy, and don't want to pass it on to him (and I really love lemonade).

Yes I am happy, but not saying I have my moments.  I always hope to be able to seek more though.  More knowledge and a more open mind.

I have never been so happy.  I agree with others that we all have our down days, but for me, finding my happy place and being with my family can make all the troubles of the day disappear. 

Things like hearing my little princess laugh, or seeing her smile, or watching her cuddle with my husband while he reads her a book.

I can't ask for anything more!  I never thought my life would turn out as wonderfully as it has and I praise God everyday for my blessings.

Maybe some day in the future I will ask for another baby...we'll see.

i am equally happy as i am sad. i love all the things that my life consists of, but at the same time i feel sometimes that its a little depressing. its getting better, its not ppd or anything like that im glad, but im just stressing on how to make it all work everyday routine like. i still havent gotten that all down yet but slowly and surely its getting there.
