Who is happy....truly happy with the life they have right now... (34)
In the past...I thought I should not be happy unless I had a husband...a partner....it's what I was taught. It took 54 years of this thought process that I lived to realize, I wasn't happy seeking for what someone else thought I should have...or do what they thought I should do. It's a propaganda that is instilled in us from child birth from people who are only happy being what what others say they too should be happy doing and living. I am so happy I have a job that pays my bills and allows me the ability to enjoy the simple things in life. I have a great little home. A wonderful a family life with my child and grandchildren. Friends of many many many years. It took 2 years of withdrawals pulling myself away from those who had been in my life since birth telling me I had to live as they live to be happy so I could stop being miserable. There's a very few select still in my life. It wasn't easy....in fact it was gut wrenching! But I can say this! I am happy....truly happy. I have everything I need and want. I'm in need of nothing...I want for nothing. I love being able to please myself for the first time. If someone wants to enjoy my happiness with me great! If they want to tell me I shouldn't be happy.....I now have the understanding if I'm not allowed to be happy....I can't make anyone else happy. I'm rich in everlasting friendships of all kinds here in the states....we enjoy each other, knowing one day I'll living close to my only child. If a man shows interest in me.....they need to know this. If I am to give up this type of freedom and happiness.....you must be happy yourself. You can't go complaining about what you have, what you need to do to have it and keep it. You can't anger quickly because I have been formed I to a strong woman.....and I don't complain one bit about doing what needs to be done...I don't even whinge about it....I just simply find the solution. I'm loving but extremely direct because time is to short to to be anything but honest. Even though some would say they've lost 54 yrs of being in hell in their lives......
....I say I've spent 54 years of learning and living. The best part is with my experiences, I've actually been able to inspire and help others to do the same all these years. And now for at least the next 50 years....I get to live the lessons learned and life is going to be nothing but one big party for me!

And why!? What brought you to this point that you realized you actually have it all?
Epicurean philosophy to happiness is this.And why!? What brought you to this point that you realized you actually have it all?
Be self sufficient, have enough food to last you for at least three months in case you lose a job.
Share one meal per day with at least one other person who is not a member of your family.
Spend at least one hour per day reflecting back on your day.
Now the way I see it
a person who has nothing is very happy to get a free meal and if he or she is extremely lucky a roof over their head for the night. A person who has everything will complain about everything because they feel they deserve better.

Plus they have more to lose.
When you live simply and with few needs, life is enjoyable and any extras are serendipitous rather than a perceived requirement

Man o man if that ain't the truth...I'll pay for telling a lie. I spent so much of my younger years trying to work to have things that everyone told me I should have. Once I finally said enough...and started living as I taught my daughter...life has been more abundant in more ways than one. Way more peaceful too. And the serendipitous extras are lovely little treats
if a lot of people took the time to lookat the rest of the world at the moment,i tell you what,we have no reason to complain,the life we live now is Shangri la.but its slowly dwindling,weve seen the best of this country,something to tell our grandkids.Lets hope we don't completely lose what weve got::australia:

Miners in Australia and Brazil, who for years have earned massive profits from China's insatiable demand for iron ore, are ramping up production at a time when steel demand growth is slowing, pushing prices down 28 per cent so far this year.

rubbish, this life with your present body will of course end, your body will be disposed of burnt or be eaten by bacteria turn into pus etc ect, but subtle levels of your consciousness will re-incarnate according to your karmas.
It is impossible for something to become a nothing, the cycle birth and rebirth is without beginning and without end.
