Hmm, I hope you do not intend this as a trick question.
I consider myself relatively happy, though I seldom reflect on why and how. Being usually optimistic, but having, sometimes, a very cynical outlook, I feel that life, despite my personal nature, could seem worse. I, by no means, see myself ecstatic about life, but feel often oddly amused with the random events, sensations, and intuitive/reasoning thoughts presented by my imperfect senses of my surroundings, for better or worse.
I frequently rationalize Aristotle's ideas in Nicomachean Ethics, stating his impossibility to live up to the true definition of 'happiness,' not having the ability to judge one's happiness until death (re-affirmed by Michel de Montaigne and Cicero), but, for now, yes, I think myself satisfied enough with life.
Whew!
To the person below me: same question.
-
I'm pretty happy.
Whats up?
-
not much, but about the other question, I wonder a lot about why I should be happy and I always come to the same conclusion that there is so much beauty in the world, and I haven't seen half of it. Tonight I was looking at my 10 month old niece and I felt sorry for her, she has to go through so many things in life that I have overcome, I don't wish that on anyone. and I'm only 19.
well I can be happy but I'm not really sure if I am at this point in my life.
do you start every day on a positive thought, or just most days?
-
I do not start any day with a positive thought. I expect nothing and as a result I am never disappointed. This also means I get pleasantly surprised when anything I do works out properly.
How many bones have you broken?
-
One. I rarely played sports in my highschool days, but, during a basketball game in P.E. (physical education), I fractured the knuckle of my left ring-finger.
To the person below me: how is the weather today/tonight?
-

-

what aren't you thinking?
-
I'm thinking your answer to Jack-A was much less flippant than what I was prepared for. A Missed opportunity?
Where do you think happiness resides?
-
Not sure if happiness resides anywhere... maybe within self.
favorite Sinatra song?
-
These Boots Were Made For Walking
Is there a word that, no matter how often you look it up in the dictionary, you can never remember what it means when you come across it?

There are couple... and even now I cannot remember what they are.
