True happiness?


I ask this because I have a friend who is always depressed and it drives me bonkers.

I am sure she could find something to smile about. Even if its because she is alive.

Do any of you have someone you know who is this way?

Do you beleive there is always something to be happy about?

I know what you mean, I almost died three years ago. I am so thankful my cousin was there with me. If it hadn't been for her I would have been gone.
I used to be the same way. BUT LIFE IS TOOOOO SHORT!

She might have clinical depression and be unable to come out of her mood. Sometimes it's hard to tell when someone's just having a bad day and suffering from depression. I have to fight mine daily.

When I was married I felt just like your friend, then I decided to make a change in my life.

I got deathly ill a year ago and that opened my eyes even further. Each day to me is a gift.

Live life as if it is your last dayflowers

And yes, there is always something to be happy about, if you really think about it. Just living in a clean place, with food and water, we should be grateful.

I love the quote "happiness is a decision you make ahead of time" ... it is true ... an attitude that is cultivated.

Read a book called "The Prophet". It's by Kahlil Gibran. It's about happiness. Or give it to your friend. Each of us is in control of how we feel. It's up to your own person to be happy. : )

For some people depression is so bad that being alive is no longer a plus. Might want to get your friend to talk to her doctor or other health care professional. Depression is a vicious cycle, very tough to get out of and once you're in it it's very hard to see the world the way that everyone else does.

There is always something to be happy about to be sure, being able to recognise it is an entirely different matter.

Some people are destined to be miserable forever no matter what life throws at them.
