Am i truly happy? No.. Not really.



But i am content.

I consider myself happy and I'm glad to be living. <3

Being happy is fucking awesome. Makes life so much more enjoyable

Depends on the day. One I might be feeling awesome and wanting to be productive. Others leave me hating the world and all the stupid people who gave me a hard time through school. Course, if I get struck with some random idea I refuse to put off till later because it's something I wanna do and do now, kinda lifts me out of that place.

roof over my head? check, 3 hots and a cot daily? check, family and friends that love me? check, no major health problems? check, job that makes me happy and pays well enough? check.

im not just happy, i wouldent trade this for anything in the world. things are the way they were meant to be.

It helps to also realise that happiness is not some kind of solid-state. Even dominant emotions can flux drastically at the drop of a hat.
I guess happiness can be almost like an 'atmospheric' emotion or state of mind, that encapsulates everything else you feel at any given moment, y'know?

It's also worth remembering that there is no shame in being unhappy when you have every reason to feel good, or feeling happy even against a tidal wave of things that should make you feel cripplingly bad. Emotions don't need reasons. There are no 'silly' or 'dumb' emotions. The triggers can be the size of an ant or a mountain. In the end, if you feel it, it is real, and that is all that matters, regardless of it's root or cause.

...and I'm glad somebody has found that little centred happiness, at least~
