Only if you're gloating over someone else's misfortune.

One of the keys to happiness is to appreciate the things you already have. Performing acts of kindness can make you feel happier because you feel good about yourself, and other people are more likely to show kindness in return. Striving for intimacy in your personal relationships leads to more happiness than striving for material things or prestige.

Dont fight ur feelings.,,if u feel a certain way its for a reason...Or maybe its something that happened that u havent dealt with. If thats the case dont force anything just to make others like u, or happy,,cause u matter.

no. your not wrong. what would be wrong is you hiding and lying about it. if thats what makes you smile ,laugh and feel great then dont let ignorant people with nasty stares and glares bother you. go on fall in love with who ever you want.

You've obviously been hurt so often, you find being happy is not worth the effort. You don't HATE being happy, you just find it very hard to be upbeat when life is not being good to you.

Grand total for smiling: 12.\nGrand total for frowning: 11.\n\nDespite the fact that smiling uses more muscles, Song believes it takes less effort than frowning--people tend to smile more frequently, so the relevant muscles are in better shape. You may feel this conclusion assumes a rosier view of the human condition than the facts warrant, but I defer to the doctor. Incidentally, a superficial, homecoming-queen smile requires little more than the two risorius muscles. So if your goal in expressing emotion is really to minimize effort, go for insincere.

It is like any other emotion. But the fact that this emotion can be too strong that it makes you do things you never thought you can do in a very pleasant way to amke the one you love happy, made it a very important emotion and worth talking about although never describable.

When I come in to start work, my co-worker always tells me "You look like your dog just died." We get along and stuff and he's a happy personality-type guy, but he always makes me think that I look sad. I am not sad when I come in to work, I'm just not bouncing up and down with excitement. Personally I think that telling someone they look sad or always asking "what's wrong" can bring that person's spirits down. It does to me. And I fall to the happy side more than the sad side.

IT IS ALL ABOUT YOU AND WHAT YOU ENJOY. IF YOU ENJOY WHAT YOU DO CAN IT FEED YOU SPIRITUALLY . YOU CAN BE SPIRITUAL IN A DEPARTMENT STORE IF YOU DO IT WITH A SPIRITUAL INTENT.

YES!  I've let others hurt my feelings and make me doubt myself.  I've learned though that, it's up to me to allow that to hurt me or not.  I am responsible for my own feelings about myself and shouldn't let others make me feel bad or doubt myself.  I must love myself and not let anyone else shake that!\nI don't want anyone else to feel that way about themselves because of something I have said so, I try my best to be supportive instead of belittling or insensitive.

Well this is totally different than what we discussed a few days ago......lol  The "Carry off" portion changes the whole perspective. When you say it this way....I realize you are talking about "masking" feelings with happiness......or promoting the feeling of unhappiness for the sake of your audience. \n\nYes, I'm a master at smiling and making the world think I'm happy. (even when things are crumbling around me) Rarely do people know the blows that life lands on me because I won't allow the efffects to show in my demeanor. It's not that it is work.....it's not that it is hard to do.....it's just how it is. I never want people to feel sorry for me or to feel that they must take on my burdens, so I tackle things on my own in my own time and don't show the negative side. \n\nThus why I said earlier that maintaining a "negative" disposition would be harder work for me. It would mean that I would actually have to bring my issue to the forefront of my mind and think about it. It's such a natural response for me to just "table" it until I'm alone. When someone that knows me well sits me down and says, "Ok, spill it....something is eating at you." Well it takes all the strength and effort in the world to make myself actually "unload." I seriously just have a very very hard time burdening anyone else with the things floating around in my head. So hands down.............it's easier to maintain a positive disposition than a negative one. \n\n*now all of you think I need therapy right? lol....you just might be right!! lol*

"Laughter is the best medicine" has its roots in fact.  The endorphins released during laughter can greatly improve one's overal mental and physical state, and of course, the better one feels mentally and emotionally, the better one feels physically.  Laughter exercises the diaphram and also increases blood (and oxygen) flow to the brain and other parts of the body, and this is always good.  Laughter, contrary to many Old Wive's Tales, does NOT make you "fat and jolly." Crying is a two edged sword.  Crying is important in that it helps release the negative affects of upsets and pain and truly helps a person emotionally heal; people who can't cry are prone to both mental and health problems, and unreleased emotions (fear, pain, upset, sadness) can cause serious physical problems and disease, even cancer.  On the other hand, persistant crying can physically and emotionally drain a person (not to mention cause unsightly red, puffy eyes), causing real depression and the body's natural balance to go on tilt which can cause physical ailments.

When people feel bad and down, they don't like perky people who are happy.  They want to be with someone else who is also in their downer mood.  Problem is most folks don't want to be in a downer mood, which is why the company doesn't reciprocate.
