@Fristo Lovely post, friend. It really gives something to think about.
My source of happiness comes with sharing kindness and warmth with others. That could be through listening here, or cooking a family meal. My joy definitely comes from helping others without the thought of reciprocation. I just do it because I want to, and it makes me happy.
@Fristo
Thank you for asking a question that takes a step closer to ourselves.
I believe being their for my family (both personal and 7cups) who have stayed through my thick and thin, highs and lows makes me happier. Working and grasping and learning new things is also my source of joy.
Just to be happy and help someone. Be helpful to the homeless and make them feel love again. Make people feel wanted.
I thought I have non but I realised there were too many things that I took for granted.
I’ll list my source of happiness now!
- when it’s raining
- when people show their support to me
- when i bought my favourite singer album. story time : when i was in high school, i had an important exam in a few months. i bought myself an album of my favourite idols concert dvd (gfriend) and i told myself to open the parcel only after i finished my exam. i forgot i had the parcel since it’s been months. long story short i felt depressed and sad at one time but i remembered i still have that parcel to open so it made me happy instantly. i still remember the feeling and i’m thankful for that
- when i get to walk and hang out alone, it’s so calming
- sea, ocean, waves
- going to amusement park with my siblings or friends
Thanks for the topic i appreciate it sm
Finding happiness had always been a struggle for me. Depression had resulted in putting up a mask when I'm around different people, which now that my depression is not at its worst anymore; I no longer know if I'm truly happy, or if it's just a mask. All I know is, when someone appreciates my efforts at work, it puts a smile on my face.
Life in general though, I'm not exactly where I had imagined my life to be like, so that's not something to be happy about. Although my depression has been under control, medication-free for the past 5-6 years, at times, it still makes me feel that happiness is something I cannot get a grasp of. When I do feel happy, I doubt myself if it's real or not, and that it was only momentarily/temporary.
So, my source of happiness is unknown~

@Fristo I think my source of happiness are my loved ones. To me, there's no purpose in living life if you don't have people to share it with. ❤️
Getting out of bed every morning and going to work
My dog is my source of happiness. He always loves me and needs me too.
My source of happiness is knowing I'm pleasing my heavenly father by caring for my children and myself. But people around me can cause disappointment for a short time.
