Interesting question---No I'm not happy---now, I am grateful more so than happy---I have been going thru 10 years of very, stressful, horrendous events having to do with cancer , divorce , and of course, the events the world is going thru----nothing that makes me happy---but I am grateful my family is all well and working and stable in their lives----and that I am cancer free and living comfortably------and pretty healthy---happy.....meh!!!

Hi ya,

I am not happy at the moment, my husband of 59 yrs passed away less than a month ago......friends have died off or moved away,  i do believe in god but I am not a church goer....so I am also lonely....which is not conducive to being happy right now.....

that being said I had a pretty good run at things for many years and was too busy back then to stop and think if I was happy or not, so I must have been happy....I am hoping that I will perk up and find something to do that interests me and will help make me happier than I am right now

I guess happiness ebbs and flows in course of peoples lives and minds

@Hazelfaye I am so sorry for the loss of your husband and good friends. It's hard to lose loved ones and friends, you feel like you are left behind and it is incredibly lonely.

Yes.

IMO being "happy" is a choice.  We can choose to focus on the positive or focus on the negative.  It is up to each of us.

@kaydee50  That may be true but you didn't answer the thread question, just told us your philisophy.

Usually, but the unfolding events and horror in Ukraine has affected me, profoundly. I am very sad right now for the wonderful people of Ukraine and the world.
