Have you ever been completey, purely, entirely happy? So happy that you felt happiness bursting out of you...happiness surrounding everyone...touching and contaminating everyone.......Have you ever been TOTALLY HAPPY?????

Because I don't remember that, I don't remember being that happy.....maybe I not made for that......

  • I remember there being a time when I was completely happy, no worries in the world, just being happy where I was at that very moment. I remember. It was when I was younger. 10ish. I was lying down on our lawn and looking up at the clouds going by with a brisk luke warm wind across my face. My cat came up to me to sit by my side and look up with me. No one was around. I was just with myself and I could make whatever I wanted out of the clouds that lay above my head. I could just look and wonder what else was out there that I hadn't experienced before. That's when I had imagination. Imagination is what we lose as adults. We are told that it's not possible and go about our day thinking that we can't do the things that we imagined we could. True happiness comes from within. We just have to find it within ourselves, accept, and embrace it.

  • You will be there again.. it is the ebb and flow of life.. it comes and go...Dear one..
    and you have a Light in you.. you are a passionate person who feels things strongly,, which is a gift and a curse.. but gives you a life you can live richly!! You will be fine.. just remember,, with everything,, 'this too shall pass'' the good and the bad'' all of it does.. dear one , you just feel it strongly, b/c it is the way you are made.

  • Hi niki! Sorry you're having a difficult time with some things right now! Julie was right when she said this will pass. You probably could use a little joy to get in sync with the blues and kind of chase them away or, at least, give you a sense of that great human attribute, hope. You are more loved than you are currently aware of.

    I was glad to see you enjoyed my poem; thanks for linking it up! Be good to yourself my sweet!

  • Happiness is overrated in any case. Nobody can be truly happy if they are conscious of all of the horrific things in life. The hunger, the abuse, the torture, the deceipt, the injustice, etc. That's not to say that we should be depressed about life either. There are many good things going on as well. An even temperment, mixed with compassion, will last much longer than bursts of extreme happiness.

    People who walk around in an overly happy daze are generally superficial. They shield themselves from the reality of life as the majority live it because it would force them to put their own joy into perspective.

    Do laugh when you get the chance. It's great medicine. But don't torture yourself by thinking that most people are happier than yourself. The fact is, they aren't. Many fake it well though.

    Otherwise, drugs do help to raise endorphin levels if yours are low.

  • Hi guys!
    The things is, I know I am a normal person, I have my ups and downs. Right now I quite ok, but sometimes I get so depressed it hurts. It's nice to know that someone thinks about me and takes the time to post smth here.

    I've been happy, but I don't remember a moment o perfect happiness. I know that happiness is a moment, but I don't remember it, that's all. I am still waiting for it.
