Thanks for asking. Sorry for venting a little.
No, I am not happy with my life. Sure, anyone who knows me would think otherwise, but that's just a guise. I prefer to handle things myself. Now mind you what I say next is probably a little selfish, or crap examples but hey-- we are talking about how we view our lives, right?
I may start ranting here, but oh well. I am not happy with society and the way the world plays out, or how the world really pans out to be after you get past the 'smoke and mirrors'. Sure, we all know the worlds not perfect, and some pretty bad shit goes on. But in the end, it's worse than that. I also am not happy with the way my life has gone. I have great parents, but I find myself thinking, "If only they had done better," referring to how neither of them could handle college, and I get that for some people it's just hard to deal with that. The economy is shit, too. Due to economic issues, my entrepreneur grandfather who has some pretty shit luck is losing his business, house, etc. My dad who worked for him then had to downgrade jobs to one with almost half the pay, plus the new company he works for is horrible. Gotta love those giant companies that can't get anything done right because they have no ability to control such a large widespread operation. I guess I am a little different when I view such a thing as lost opportunity for things like family memories; opportunities and the like. Schools have gone to shit too. Kids these days, even the ones my age are thugs and plain out horrible people. No idea how they could think they have a chance at being able to do anything when they can't even handle themselves. Besides, school systems are already not getting enough money; blame it on what you will. I am also very unhappy with myself and how I have shaped out so far in life, though I have not gotten far in comparison to others. I'm unhappy with my tendencies. I always tend to uncover something to dig me in deeper, and I always leave the experience feeling worse than before, knowing I managed to screw up even more. I am unhappy with love. I want to find the perfect girl, but it doesn't feel to me that I'll be able to find her anywhere around me. Though I should rephrase that. Everyone knows what I mean by the one. I can only explain it as the one who really makes me want to live and feel. Someone that lights up my loneliness and makes everything good again. Then again, many people believe that that is a bunch of shit so cut your losses and deal with it, right?
I can say I have a few joys in my life; not everything is as bleak as I might've painted it.
Sorry for the long post, but I figured this is the kind of stuff you wanted when you posted your question about life.
