What is good for you? Time is ticking away. And im not any closer to what makes me happy. What? I dont know.


I think there are any number of different reasons.

Some people have no idea what's good for them, let alone what they want.

Some people won't let themselves be happy.

Some people don't believe it's possible.

Some people have been knocked down so many times they don't want to make the effort anymore.

And then there are the ones like me, who know what they want, but can't find it. Sometimes it isn't about knowing what's good for you, it's really just about being able to accept that it isn't out there.

The sad part is i have nothing to blame it on.

Blame doesn't fix anything, anyway. The thing to do is get past that part of it and try to move towards something more constructive.

What if it isn't different in a few days? Would that mean to you that it will never happen?

Maybe you could pick 5 things you haven't done before, even if they don't sound fun, and do them anyway. If that sounds scary, find someone, a friend, to do it with you. Do all 5 even if it seems silly or ridiculout.

How about talking to a counselor or minister?

I could be way off base here, but there just has to be a way to move on.

Good luck.

It isn't hard to choose what is good for you, or what makes you happy. At least not for me.

Why do you think you're not happy?

what makes u happy?

to me to live each day in peace and free from fear is huge and wonderful. To regret my errors and make my peace and knowing that I have at least a few friends that I can trust. if there is another kind of happiness perhaps it will reveal itself to me as life would be stagnant if all was known in the present

Well it cheers me up, the thought of living somewhere new. I go on different websites looking at different houses, and pick out the one's i'd most like to move into. That's my sad hobbie xD

Well, I go on house plans sites and do the same thing. I don't see anything wrong with that. I enjoy it and that's enough for me!

Sometimes you have to go through a lot of pain to reach happiness.

Wow, except for that last part... after the final comma, that was awesome. Very succinct too.

What isn't out there is all in your mind though... I believe even Lex could be happy one day and find the perfect thing for him.

I'm not opposed to the idea, it's just that I have yet to see Sign One that it even exists.

Happiness is a state of mind, to rely on others to "make you happy" justs sets you up for defeat. Find some hobbies, or volunteer, join a club, etc make good use of your companionless and you won't have time to feel sorry for yourself :smile:

I choose to be happy and can find something good in every situation. I think that if you're not truly thankful for what you do have, it's virtually impossible to be either content OR happy.
