    I am neutral right now, and just talking with a friend.

    I think once I have a hot cup of chocolate and watch Rove on tv I'll perk up

    i'm calm and neutral on the happiness indicator too. which is really the most gratifying way for one way to be most often.

    certainly i could be living in ways that i'd be happier to, if i could, if i wasn't living in a country that shoves people togather in superficial ways with tyrannical edicts that arbitrarily deny us nature and reality, but i guess i'm probably as happy as i could be under the cercumstances surrounding me, which are probably as good or better in real terms, over what many at all levels of every society have.

    but its not what it could be. i guess i'm repeating myself.

    if everyone could always have someplace where they could always get the sleep they needed at any and every hour of the day with no one ever denying that and someplace they could set things down and still expect them to be there when they got back, without having to enslave themselves to the lies and arbitrary assumptions of others in order to do so, i know i for one, would have and be able to, contribute a lot more to the rest of humanity. to the real happiness of real people, places and things.

    I am fairly content right now.
    I have a party to look forward to and 2 weddings to go to this summer....time to dress shop, because I don't have anything to wear. :D

    You need stuff to look forward to Jess.

    i would say happiness is when things are working out the way you want them to and you feel damn good about it, while contentness is basically just the absence of negative feelings.




    so i'm never happy and i'm content about 1/3 of the time :mad:

    I can't say I am happy right now. I am actually on a holding pattern in life.

    I am stuck where I am for another week or so. I hate yield signs of life.

    What keeps me going is that I have goals and dreams.

    So I suppose as long as I am on the road to those things I should be happy.

    But I lack patience about things.

    I should not complain because I really do have everything I need and am excited for what is coming my way.

    But sometimes I am very jaded about people and life.

    lmao, Okay, I'm a slight bit happier after reading this. You're a fucking riot, Mitok.

    I am slightly unhappy because I just called my dad to see if they were going to go visit my grandma today and they did
    it yesterday, but were supposed to call me first, so I missed out. I'm bummed out because my other grandma lives forever and a day away and I never get to see her either, so it would be nice if I could catch a ride with them when they go to see the one who lives an hour away. :(

    I'm not happy anymore now. I just had another row with my landlord, he thinks he can just come and go as he pleases and today he came round and started blaming me for the mess in the kitchen. The whole episode came to a climax when he burst into my room and assaulted me, the fucking ignorant **** that he is. SO I am having him charged and will be speaking to lawyers. Bastard capitalist landlords really get me down.

    I can identify with the above.

    But it's difficult for me to define happiness. Sometimes it feels so arbitrary, I could be happy in a hospital bed with lung cancer. :huh:

    Edit: all I know is that happiness is not the absence of struggle.
