Happiness is a choice, sure there are things that make it harder, but being happy is something you choose to become and work at. People who think things like "If only I got a raise" , "If only I can get married" or "If I have another child" "then I would be happy". Will never achieve happiness since all those things will just become a part of your life schedule. Sure those things can enrich life, but by themselves will not make you a happy person. You have to learn to enjoy the processes in your life to be happy, and not focus on the outcomes which are often not in your total control.

Their is weed everywhere I go...
But with Relationships, We usually get out of them what we are willing to put in them,
But I Think that Life is Best Shared....
Love Has a Reason...
Its not alone...
tho the wrong one, isnt good either,
so as we get Older we walk slower, and look closer...
well were supposed to anyway

Hi ah
Well it's pretty simple really...
If you want to change lifestyles... do it.. If you want inner peace and happiness... think it... If you want more money.. study and progress to achieve it.
There will always be days when things don't go to plan, but hopefully, they are short lived... and if you focus on what you want.. I reckon it comes.. all by itself. .. just about when its suppose to.
I am single.. and I sort of like it but I think I would prefer to be with someone.. however... I must admit..I am in a time of life where I can afford to think along these lines... whereas perhaps when my focus was otherwise... I certainly was not even considering it.. I was far too focussed on my sport.. and then one day... Just like that... I decided no more.. and my life changed heaps... but for the better... I must admit..

Unless I move to some place where the population if 95% men and 5% women...then I would say no the grass is not greener.
You ask a lot of questions. What's good about marriage? Commitment, a sense of belonging, hopefully a love that lasts forever and not taken away by apathy, tempation or death.

Right now with all the snow we have right now I wish there was greener pastures.

Sometimes its just astroturf.
Sharing ones life with someone is a decision. We either carry it thru, or realise we were wrong.

The last time this was asked a member said "the only way the grass is greener is if your neighbour is growing pot"...I concur

most don't know what they have until it's gone
then the grass is not as green

life is what you make it, and it is also an experience. some people are just meant to be single, because there is so much freedom involved, but I guess most of us dream of being in a loving, compatible, and long term relationship, where you can be there for each other, in good times, and bad.

It's not easy I know... but it's the pure truth... You need to work with ur "issues" , let go things and people and feelings... and just realize this is your life... that's happening now... whatever it be... and of course be thankfull of everything you've got...and accepting what will come .
