Are you content?
 

Recently i have been thinking how i have a lot in my life i would like to change,more so than in previous years.
Someone i used to live with pointed out how i was happy with what i had a couple of years ago (which was actually less than i have now)and now im always wanting different to what i have got.
Sometimes i think maybe its my age, but mostly the reason is because i feel i have little control over how things turn out for me.Maybe im wrong.
I have started to take action/or looking into the things i can change,that i have not achieved in the past few years due to various reasons.Such as learning to drive (i saved £500 for lessons and ended up buying a pram-i suppose its a set of wheels :rolleyes: ).
Doing stage two in sign language-i passed stage one when i was 14,and although intended to do stage 2 at 15-i didn't cos i left home.
These plus a few more have been on my mind all week-so about time i did something about it me thinks(if circumstances allow me).

So was wondering are you lot content?
Do you go through phases?
Or is it really just my age?
Please-no smutty comments :rolleyes:

Be happy with what you have and it sounds like you are feeling sorry for your self

MissP, reading your post I can't help thinking that you are not sexually satisfied.
Maybe it's time you took Rindy up on his offer of showing you what a real man can do for you. I am sure he must be able to find you one from somewhere :rolleyes: :D

Oh I used to be so frustrated at my lack of direction in life and had only myself to blame .... until I heard Baz Lurhman lyrics in Sunscreen and thought "hey he's right him" :)

Dont feel guilty if you dont know what to do with your life...the most
interesting people I know didnt know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still dont.

Now I'm just content to go from one mad idea to another. Yes I'd like to have more money, having lots of money seems to offer more oppurtunities but doesn't guarantee a contented life.

I didn't mean it to sound like that at all-in fact im quite positive about the fact i feel i can change things to achieve a better life for me and my son.
Some people will never have the resources to do the same.
I feel it is possible to be happy with 'what you have' as you put it but still try and get more out of life.

i think i'm content with being who i am, i couldnt ever see me trying to put an act on to please someone else, i'm content with the fact that i only have one child,ive never wanted anymore,money isnt everything, but laughing is,if i couldnt make at least one person a day smile then i'd just have to give up :D

I think once i have thought it over for a while i will have the same idea as you Tinks *currently downloading sunscreen on limewire*
I thought money would pop up soon-it seems to be the stem of all the things i would like to change, as well as most other people.
Flashy-i agree,as alot of people know on here i only want one child and am more than happy with the lad i was blessed with.
And laughter is the best medicine-except for aching legs after alcohol :)
been looking it up and apparently alcohol is linked to gout-something laughter wont help!

I'm quite happy & content. I do however have my off days, but then i just try to think of positive thing.

i.e.

I don't have a car - but there's a bus stop outside.
I work long hours - but at least I'm working.

Life's too short to worry about every little thing. Keep smiling, & seize every opportunity that comes your way.

:D

Re: Are you content?
