Sad is too strong a word for my current state of mind. Discontented is closer, also frustrated with certain aspects of life.
But yeah, I’m pretty much happy with things, when I get my head out of my hinderparts and look around me and see what others are dealing with. I lead a pretty good life, overall.
At this moment I am sad.
In general I am sad about the path my life has taken.
I believe I will be mostly sad in the future.
Sure, there’s things I’d love to be different, but I can say I’m damn happy right now. Great job that I love working at, great wife, and a great 4 year old kid to do Legos with.
This nails it for me too.
I’m generally content. I have a really good life, better than I ever imagined actually. I have just about everything I’ve ever wanted, and have experienced most of what I’ve ever wanted to experience. However, there’s an undertone of panic just below the surface that’s part of every waking moment of my life. The more I achieve, the more I fear to lose it, which causes me to constantly strive for more. Drives my wife up a wall.
Did you… did you just grope me??? :eek:
I’m quite happy overall, and predict happiness for the future.
I feel like I have the perfect guy in my life and look forward to many years with him. Looking forward to a wedding someday, and then kids.
I like my job, it’s low stress and interesting, challenging and my co-workers are fun. I never thought I’d be working off shore, and I do miss some aspects of teaching from time to time, but overall I’m really happy.
I make a decent amount of money now compared to when I was teaching, and I’m starting to wipe out a good amount of debt. Hopefully by the end of 2012, my goal, is to have all my credit cards paid off entirely.
I’m 25 now and I am definitely looking forward to the rest of my life. 
I can’t imagine how I could be any happier than I am now, except for maybe when I have kids and maybe grandkids, haha.
At the moment, neither happy no unhappy. Overall, sad. I didn’t vote about the future because I really find it impossible to think about how things may be. I have probably ten years left, so if they’re going to be happy ones, the happiness really needs to get started soon.
At this moment, I am very stressed about things immediately in my future. I also suffer from depression.
However, knowing that the things immediately in my future will pass away and that, soon, we will have longer daylight hours and my depression will lighten, I will see more of my friends, meet new friends and have new experiences.
To sum up, I am neither happy nor unhappy at the moment and my long view is aiming towards happiness.
I don’t know about the rest of you, but my life is way too complex to fit nicely into the options in the poll. I’m very happy about some of the choices I’ve made in life, and very unhappy about some serious mistakes I’ve made that I’d give anything to go back and change. The one thing I’m sure of is that I’ll be going through some major changes in the coming year . . . hopefully they’ll work out to something positive.
I’m pretty happy right now and very happy with the path my life has taken. For the future, what’s left of it, things might start going bad. I didn’t vote on that.
I’m happier now than I’ve been in a while, but…
I have a new job I like a lot, which though part time pays more a week than my last full time job did, and apparently they like me too because I was called into the director’s office yesterday and asked what I’d think about her writing a proposal to increase my hours by 50% sooner than June as orginially planned; obviously I’m doing something right if this is on the table a mere six weeks after starting. So, careerwise I’m really happy, for its own sake and knowing that having a lot more money at my disposal makes doing something crazy like buying a home in a year or so plausable.
However, I’d be even happier if I found a great guy to settle down with. I’m going to be 35 in April, and I can’t help but worry about the fact that I’m still looking for someone willing to put up with me and vise versa. The fact that my baby brother got married 2 months ago has only amplified that time-based anxiety.
