Are You Happy?

TTRocket · 05-25-2007, 02:03 AM

Are you currently satisfied/happy in life? What is the driving force that makes you get out of bed each day?

AntiSonic · 05-25-2007, 02:10 AM

Happy? Yes. Satisfied? No.

Everytime I get down in the dumps I think about how much worse life could be. I really have nothing to complain about. Tired feet at times, but you know the cliche'...

XxShadyPinkxX · 05-25-2007, 02:12 AM

No.

Read my thread and you'll see why.

women...and seeing if there is a new "What's in your CD player right now" thread.

So, no, I'm not Happy yet. If I were happy, my answer for what gets me out of bed that I'm sharing with my women would be "bacon!"

Poloshirtbandit · 05-25-2007, 02:16 AM

Not really. The only thing that gets me out of bed is usually that I have to pee.

I think your thread is why this thread was started?

It's annoying your thread was hijacked. I was going to say sumpin, like, can I make you some bacon to cheer you up? or sumpin.

:D Bacon is yummy, thanks. lol Now we're hijacking this thread.

On topic...

I will get up in the morning for some of heyp's bacon!

AntiSonic · 05-25-2007, 02:28 AM

i hear it's crispee!

Let me first say that I genetically have a happy disposition. It just runs in the family. Even when crap happens, we still can maintain a happy disposition. With that being said, I can honestly say I am one of the happiest people I personally know.

I have a hot wife who is nice, a beautiful daughter that is nice, smart, and has the happiness gene. I have job that takes me around the world where I meet tons of cool people and eat tons of great food. I have a good size house with a room that is only for me 5 minutes from lake Travis. I have friends that I've known since elementary school that I still talk to. I don't worry much about money. I have 8 siblings that I can count on who have bailed me out of many bad situations. I know my wife would love me and stay with me even if I lost it all because she married me when I had nothing to my name.

I think happiness comes from having the right perspective on life. Being budhist helps me with that. However, I can't say if I'm the way I am because I am budhist or I am budhist because I am the way I am.

I know I am lucky and I thank god almost everyday for my fortune.

Personally yeah but looking at things happening around me and in the world kills that fleeting feeling of personal comfort.

Remember kids, ignorance is bliss.

I thought you were going to make the bacon while I sleep in for another 15 minutes? sigh. apparently all girls know (even girls who work at restaurants for free) know they can push me out of bed to go make the bacon.

oops...i blame AntiSonic for this continued hijacking of the thread.

back on topic:

peppered bacon or regular?
pan crispee or slow baked to luscious tendernous?

what were we talking about?

krnxsnoopy · 05-25-2007, 02:45 AM

sure..

but where is the "not bad, but things could be better" option?

Lynus302 · 05-25-2007, 02:54 AM

Right now, personally, hell no. I'm fcking miserable. And I've been fcking miserable for quite some time.

I don't want to off myself or anything like that, but I really feel that life has me bent over a fcking barrel.

WWR · 05-25-2007, 03:05 AM

I am as happy as a queer in a pecker tree.

I get out of bed each morning knowing that it is that much closer to hunting season.

I also surround myself with successful people.

I don't drink.
I don't smoke.
I am religious/go to church.

I think the way you live your life helps to add to your happiness also.
Sometimes you're put into situations to where it is hard to be happy but you must make the best of it! :D

Invisible Fan · 05-25-2007, 03:15 AM

I think if I worry less and do more, I'd be happier.

Mr. Brightside · 05-25-2007, 03:44 AM

mr. brightside? ohhh yea! every day is better than the last.

women (or should i say the lack of it), school, women, school, women, school, women, school, women, school,women, school,women, school,women, school,women, school,women, school,women, school,women, school.

I'm not happy

Pole · 05-25-2007, 04:58 AM

I think I’m dumb
Or maybe just happy

Vengeance · 05-25-2007, 08:28 AM

Ugh, this is a question I've been thinking about a lot lately. I am so NOT happy right now. I'm pretty freaking depressed, actually. Seems that issues with women are most folks' biggest problems . . . that's definitely up there for me. I don't understand why I can't seem to find love . . . without fail, every woman I ever connect with is either married or in a serious relationship . . . every single f-ing time. I don't get it.

RocketMan Tex · 05-25-2007, 08:32 AM

This is what makes me get out of bed each morning:

And I'm happy when I hold her in my arms.
