Can you be truly happy for someone else?

wooooooooo arjan is returning to his hippy roots

PRAISE UP, PRAISE UP!!

 

No need for praises, I will remain a very humble yet simple person!

 

i channel john lennon...if you want to communicate with him, lemme know

 

Ooh! I'm curious!

 

Bird, you are humble and lovable.

 

Awwww thank you very much, I love you too!

 

Are you feeling OK Bird Migration? Has someone stolen your user name when we switched forums? I'm actually starting to like you! You seem.... almost.... nice!

 

I once was friends with a girl who couldn't be happy at others good fortune no matter what. She was jelous, cunning, sly and went out of her way to make others feel unhappy. Like someone else said, people who have feelings like those are like a virus.

 

I truly feel happy when members of my family achieve happiness. I desire happiness for my immediate family more than for myself. Especially my parents. Also for a few of my close friends.

 

you can surly be happy for someone ...even if its someone you thought you could make happy ...cuz if they are , you dont have to [make them happy].....now go out and make yourself happy ....even if you have to make someone else happy to do it ! goddammit thats an order! ....good im happy now.

 

yes, i feel I can be honestly happy for someone. It's nice when people around you are happy, it rubs on you.
honestly I never have any bad thoughts about anyone. even if they have hurt me, i forgive them. bad feelings are too heavy to carry around.

 

honestly..it depends where i'm at in me life, if im havin a truly terrible ole time, and i see someone else bein extremely happy, i do get a tad bit jealous, tis natural ey? but, althou i may be jealous, i am happy for em...i just wish that i had wha they got. ya get me?

but! fortunatly! im great! and when i see other folk doin well, it makes me feel reaaaally great!!!

cant be forgettin that we're all lucky.

our problems are nothin in comparison ta the stuff others are copin with,,,..
which is why! we need more peops like sinor birdy, spreadin the love!!

xxxxxxx!

 

I can never truly be happy for others.

I come from a strong, immigrant family. I was raised on guilt and jealousy.
