We could be happy
Oh, but how terribly sadistic that would seem.
Mel
I like this one. People aren’t using this word enough. Everyone is satisfied or “thrilled” but never just fuckin happy! This makes me sad…ironic.
Lara
Last night, I dreamt that I wedded a Jewish boy who wore a kippah at our wedding. Then I woke up.
lisa
sad, afraid, mad, mad, mad!
What? Who cares. I love you. K?
Daft
I’m happy to hear your life is falling apart. Catastrophe… really.
Lisa =]
It’s never possible…No matter what. No one can be happy…ever. Whenever someone is getting close to being happy, or think they’re happy, something goes terribly wrong to make that person absolutely miserable.
Sara
Happy. are you happy?
why does one want to be happy. why want. just be happy. dont wait for it to come. it never will. you have to get it. it is a state of mind. be happy. you can be happy, if only you stop thinking and be happy.

Happy is the feeling every person feels at one point in time, either at their wedding, when they have their first baby, or just sitting outside on a extremely nice day. Happy, can you feel it?
Kallie Cassandra
He smiled as her fingers slipped between his. The sun on his face, the grass beneath his body, Mary by his side — everything felt right, now.
“There’s something I have to tell you,” he said.
“Me, too. You go first.”
“Okay. Mary, I… I love you. I never thought I could, after Jane, but I do, I really truly do; you make me so very happy. Now… what did you want to tell me?”
“John, I’m an alien.”
“… Huh.”

Happiness is a flying car up in the sky; I dunno, really. Happiness is one of those ill-defined things that you can’t really make ends meet on. There’s no real science to it, and it can be as ludicrous as the aforementioned car or completely intangible. There’s nothing more, really, to be said, but to continue: I’m not sure that I ever have been. I’m not moserable, I’m not sad, I just… don’t know, really.
Justin
Happiness is created. You are in control of your happiness. It is not up to others. If you are unwilling to be happy, then you can not possibly be made happy. How can you expect others to please you when you can not please yourself? It is important to be able to make yourself happy, even if it is in a very small way. Just allowing yourself to be happy is better than not letting yourself be happy at all.
SK
She smiled, the biggest smile she experienced in a long time. Walking down the beach, she felt free, and she laughed out loud with the surprise of it all. Just last week, her life was headed in an entirely different direction. But it finally happened. Now she could truly be happy.
amy
Nobody has ever felt the happiness that my cat feels while laying on the kitchen floor with the knowledge that she has food, water, shelter, and a warm human to sleep with. I’m glad I could be a part of that.
im always happy it seems as time flys by my mind may drift but even within the midst of a concious hurricane I find myself unperturbed by lil things in life. I’m a happy man. Whom i hope will only get happier….
James dial
happy.
I’ve been trying to be happy since I can remember
I’ve worked out the smile, the laugh the glow.
But I still haven’t found the inner portion
Which is what I need to make it real.
Where does that come from?
anonemouse
He smiled, the light of the sun returning day’s glow back.
Life seemed easier in the wake of the sunrise, the day beckoning, summoning him to the higher calling of what he had to do.
The dream shattered; the light vanished; he awoke to find a rainy day outside his window.
Matthew
joyful, wonderful, being in a beautiful state of mind, loving, having pleasent emotions, feeling good about yourself, thinking of a wonderful memory or emotion, having a good time with friends,
elizabeth Brewster
I wish i could be happy. i should be so lucky like Kylie Minogue. Right now I am revising for exams and I am totally unhappy. I just want to let it all go and drop out of school and wake up until late and eat whatever I want and never have to do homework or chemistry.
Calvin
Ahh i wish i felt this way right now. but i dont. in fact, I’m rather bored and discontent.buttt it makes me think of popsicles melting down your hand in the summertime and beautiful bouquets of flowers.
michelle
I was happy we didn’t call 911. I saw you in the recliner chair, peaceful and unresponsive. At one point your mouth dropped open and I wondered if your soul had left. I thought “what a peaceful way to die if this is the end”. Then I saw your chest move again.
An angel was on my shoulder today – I somehow got hospice involved within hours so our aide can stay and you can die at home. I kissed you when I left and then, in front of his wife, the hospice nurse and social worker I kissed your son’s head as I walked by. Human, heartfelt gesture – not professional. Genuine.
Mary Ann
i’ve often thought about being happy. about its tribulations and its consequences and its promises. happiness isnt something that comes naturally. its something that requires work and effort. being happy is fucked.
lola
Happiness is something that creeps over you going unoticed for long periods at a time, its not till your sad you realise how happy you were.
Annabel
Happy. Like those moments. When everything just aligns and feels right. You never know when they’re coming, but they do. The sun is shining and you’re wlaking, singing a happy tune, your favourite song comes on or a kitten paws at your toe and all at once, all is right with the world. And nothing can stop that. You’re happy. As a clam.
K-Rae
happy happy happy you say. I don’t know where this is or what it does. I think I’ve experienced it, maybe. Moments. But I’m mostly the opposite of ‘happy’. But some things I think make me ‘happier’… Matt, beauty, writing.
I don’t think it’s ever going to be a state of ‘happiness’ but more a constant shifting of moods and feelings, some being positive and reaching towards happiness, and many being not so positive.
Happiness is… having a friend like you. I got given that as a card from a friend of mine once. For some reason, despite the corniness, I liked it a lot.
Happiness is… then… making others happy?
blah
Jessica
I was happy while I was in his arms. Lying next to him in bed, with his arms wrapped around me, I felt safe, secure, loved, and absolutely in the right place.
I hating to leave him, but I had to. There was a plane waiting for me. It was the worst thing I’ve ever had to do.
So much for being happy.
Da Goddess
it’s when everything’s right in the world, at least in your point of view; when the sun is shining outside and when the grass is green with life, when you can hear the birds chirping their songs and the squirrels rushing across the road
cecilia j iang
Happy. It’s so overrated.. well at least i think so. I mean seriously, our whole life we’re expected to be happy? But there’s so much more to humanity and intellect and life than just happiness. Most ironically of all, isn’t happiness just boring?
thenakedblurr
happiness is like godliness. where are we? stuck in between flowers. daffodils are growing. small purple flowers feel velvety. the stars come out. I’m still afraid of love. this happiness can’t last, can it? but love can. there’s the difference.
treacy
“Happiness runs in a circular motion,” The music reaches my ears filling me with complete and utter bliss. Something about today just makes me feel extremely happy. I mean, the birds aren’t singing, theres rain but no rainbow, and somehow I can’t help but smile. My friends are laughing, unable to stop, all around me. I guess its the fact that we know that whatever happens, we’ll always be there for one another. It doesn’t matter what other people think, because we are just plain happy.
Emma louise
“a warm gun i guess” and he coils his fingers in my hair and it’s such a stupid thing. i know it is but i keep doing it… left the car out back in neutral with the parking brake on hoping it will roll away just to be stranded like this
kate
i wish today was a happy day. Sadly, it was not. perhaps it could be if i say it was unhappy and I took away the un part. I must try that tomorrow.
Christine Doyle
Happiness is quite possible the most abstract, undefined idea we as humans have created. As a freshman in highschool, I read an article called “The Art of Unhappiness”, explaining why artists feel the need to focus on negative emotions. It opened my eyes. It’s not about never feeling bad. It’s about being ok about feeling bad when you do.
Maeve Flynn
I was the happiest when my son was born. I knew right then he would be my world and every day would be better than the next. His name is Stefan and he put a smile on my face every day
Gloria
i love being happy their is no drama and its the best feeling. there are so many things you could be happy about. i think the simplest happiness is being brought to life on this earth.

Slaphappy is the way to go on those rare days when nothing good ishappening in your world. You could fin another way to b e happy that has more sense to it but you cannot find a way to be happy without a good heart and a little fat wife. So I wish you a happy day one that will bring sunshine into other people’s lives, too.
david
I think I was happy today with the sun shining on my face, but that quickly faded as I sat back in my chair at my desk in front of my computer and worked. How I long to be outside. And happy.
hoppy
sunshine and rainbows. trees all around you, with green leaves and yellow tints. fluffy clouds filled with faces and dragons. feeling the sun hit your face and completely forgetting about all life’s silly mishaps and dilemmas. just enjoying things.
inge
Happiness is freedom. That’s what I’ve come across lately, anyway. The search for myself, and more particularly for a career, a LIFE, is a search for hapiness. and that is how I came to anarachy… because the freedom to do what I actually want to do can come only when I am not forced to do those other things.
