I've got a pretty good life: well-paying job, beautiful wife who loves me, children who are great, I'm tall (obviously I had no hand in this), I have never experienced poverty, etc....but I don't feel happy. Even after a great weekend like this one, where I spent time with my family and they were all happy, I still feel unsatisfied at the end.
My wife tells me that I just look for things to be upset about; I'll dwell on anything negative as a way to be sad she says. So with all this stuff I have going for me I will dwell on things that make me sad, like some shit I've been dealing with at work for months.
I think there is more to it, I feel like I don't know how to be happy, I WANT to be happy, I WANT to be one of those people who smiles at the world, but I don't know how to.
I know I have it good, especially compared to so many people in the world who are experiencing real suffering, yet here I am, with a fully stocked refrigerator, an HDTV and whatever else I want, and I don't feel happy.
I think that I'm just a huge pussy to be honest.
