Happy is defined as: delighted, pleased, or glad, as over a perticular thing: to be happy to see a person (dictionary.com)
My question for the day is anyone truely happy or just merely content?
As of lately I'm leaning more towards just merely content. To me being happy is not wanting for anything else but everyone always wants for more than what they have. Be it to get married, have children, a new job, bigger home, or a new car, you are always reaching for your goal to get this thing or that thing. Happy would be when you have achieved all your goals and have everything you want. Life is incomplete without dreams and goals. So, really are you ever truly happy? Also it seems to me most of happiness is defined by material things. People always say "money can't buy happiness" but it most certainly helps. I think that most everyone is merely content. I'm not saying that no one is truly happy with any aspect of their lives, just that no one is completely happy with everything happening in their life. If you're unhappy at work then you're not truly happy while you are content with your home life.
People spend their lives in the pursuit of happiness ever stop to think maybe you're wasting your time and you should be content to be merely content? Ever stop to think what's wrong with being content?
I started this blog worried about happiness but now that I've thought it through I am extremely content. I definitely have some hardships in my life but I will make it through. I am perfectly fine with every situation that may come my way. I will preveil without happiness with mere contentment.
Happiness is like normality do either really exsist?
