Re: Are you

i saw a buddhist ted talk…dalai lama and the like…
and the guy was ecstatic over running water…so many places in the world they dont have this…
its the small things that give us happiness…

its when we obsess over our dreams and feel failed cause we dont have ‘all’ of our dreams that we get sad

working towards our dreams is a noble profession…but please dont cry if u dont have all of it now…someday…

Re: Are you

sometimes u do need to cry

and as much as society tells u not to ever cry
u need to sometimes..

Re: Are you

I mentor people that to be happy is a duty one owes to himself. A lot depends on self talk, the same situation that might make you really angry can make you really happy. For a bit I got angry that I have to work so hard, I was up at 5 am today, made breakfast for boys, packed them lunch then cooked butter chicken for the club and spaghetti for tomorrow for children. Then I changed my self talk and now feel ecstatic about the bonding and involvement with my children, rather then focusing on time spent in the kitchen I focus on the love I get in return and the human connection. I don’t mope over doing dishes but revel in the fact that I am able to serve and provide.

Re: Are you

Happy is an understatement. I am exalted with where I am in life and all the things I have been given by the god almighty when I know deep in my heart I didnt deserve!

Re: Are you

Yes, but still waiting for the results of my achievements & hark work…

I am happy only because of my knowledge :sadiyah:

Re: Are you

SubhanAllah. It’s great to see someone who is content

Re: Are you

With every aspect of life. Emotions are a roller coaster…they go with life. Overall am I happy? Yeah…I’m thankful to Allah for all He has provided me with. I am definitely given more than what I deserve.
Where I am in life, am I happy? Over all, yeah…However it’s tough…I always thought I would be doing much more by now. What I am doing…is wonderful and I love it. I was just expecting to be…volunteering more, a succesful group fitness/exercise independent business owner…etc.
But, only Allah (SWT) knows what’s best and when. So, I’m satisfied with what He has provided and if the other items come along…I will be even more forever grateful…
With all this said…happiness comes and happiness goes everyday. We have high points in life and low points and sometimes REALLY bad points…but…it’s just in the way we handle those low and bad points that matter…Happiness is what we make it.

Re: Are you

Obviously there is always things one would have liked to do differently or better. But overall I have to say Alhamdulillah I am really happy with the choices I made in my life and Alhamdulillah blessed with my family and my professional achievements.
