What do you have enough of?

Asked by janbb (62874points) May 31st, 2015

I’ve been thinking about happiness – or contentment really – and it seems to me that happiness is when you have “enough.” Discontent centers around what you perceive as lacking in your life.

So – what is it that you have enough of right now?

Friends, dogs, and time.

I’m lucky, I guess!

Me – friends, money, health and time.

Friends, although you can’t have too many friends so it is not like I have enough and so I am going to stop making them.

Well out here we’ve had a huge surplus of blue skies mild weather and very little rain. This past few days the weather is more normal, foggy drizzle.

I was going to be grateful for what I DO have which is worth being grateful for, but the void in me as regards what I do not have is way bigger than my gratitude. I am NOT talking about material wealth. I seem to be given ENOUGH by a hand and at the very moment that happens another comes and swipes it all away. That.

Seriously… happy memories to offset sad ones.

Not so seriously… the Celebrity selfies, people on cell phones, the Kardasians.

More than enough hot weather way too early in the year.
For now, flowers and birds (although it’s had tp have enough of either).

Comfortable place to rest. My house is warm and I love my bed.

I want to say friends, but lately I really feel like I wish they lived closer to me.

The warm sun. Weather really affects my happiness.

Interesting that I asked the question in a way that I thought would elicit positive comments, and reinforced that in the details. If I had asked “What have you had enough of?” I would have been asking more for negative comments. Oh well, no biggie.

Well, I bought seven different cookies at a bake sale today. So I guess I have enough cookies for a while.

Adirondackwannabe's avatar

Oh man, the sugar cookie was amazing. I managed to save ½ for tomorrow, but someone knows their way around a cookie recipe.
Edit, the other half is still in jeopardy.
