I know in my own life that once I stop to analyze how I think my life is going, I don’t just look at the good things, I look at the negative things as well. This dwelling on the negative is what brings me dissatisfaction in my life. When my life is so busy that I have no time to think is when I actually feel less depressed. When life slows down, that is when I begin to feel gloomy, or as my husband puts it, “You have too much time on your hands and you’re overthinking.” By helping others, raising my children, and teaching students, I feel good about myself and my life, and that is when the feelings of joy and happiness creep

It's a fundamental belief of mine that each one of us is brought upon this world with a major definite purpose in life. Everyone has a unique destiny for contributing to this world using their unique blend of talents and passions. I have no doubt that most people today work hard and stay busy with daily activities. The problem I've noticed is that many people live their lives without any sense of meaningful purpose that gives their lives passion and significance. They get caught up in the daily mechanical routines of life and they become creatures of habit rather than purpose-driven beings. Finding and shaping your major definite purpose is perhaps the most important thing that you will ever do in your life because your purpose is the driving force that spawns all the achievements that you will ever accomplish and it provides that unlimited source of motivation that drives you to achieve all the goals that you set for yourself and enables you to live life to the fullest.

As quoted by Csikszentmihalyi that “people often end up feeling that their lives have been wasted, and instead of being filled with happiness their years were spent in anxiety and boredom” (608). He added that despite the comfort of today’s modern living; the contentment does not seem to apply in

This article is pointed towards depression because although people are unhappy, it isn’t as serious as being depressed. Darrin M.

With our forever changing society it’s easier for people to find the negative in situations. The prevalence of the American dream is coming to a close with factors such as, major corporation layoffs, global warming, changing in gender responsibilities and one of the substantial change of this generation is the pressure of social media, making more negative outlooks than uplifting the community. According to Hamermesh and Soss an individual has a certain perceived level of happiness and if they fall below that line, one will commit suicide (Jalles and Andresen 2014).

Waking up to smiles and laughter. Running free from worries and wonders. Seeing a bright sun and dressing to warm weather. That is what most people want, right? Instead people wake up to wondering what mask one should wear? Will the mirror one looks into everyday lie again? Society has a way of putting people down, yet at the same time pressuring them to be okay. It is this constant idea that when one shows that you can no longer hold on any more other should not know about it. The feeling one has should be unnoticeable. Amanda Chatel states in her article that “... wanting to be happy is a good thing”(1) but then people keep themselves from enjoying who they are.

In analysis of “Do You Have a Life Calling”, an article written by Holly Epstein Ojalvo, one is subjected to questions pertaining to the nature of finding your role in life. According to the author, many falsely presume they must follow their longings and find themselves in the process. Instead, Holly suggests, one should devote themselves to a cause and “get lost”. Based upon personal observation, the key to one’s happiness and ability to achieve fulfillment in life is to pursue passion derived from an outside problem without concern of immediate monetary satisfaction.
