What is missing from your life right now that you wish you had so that things would feel right?

Asked by ZEPHYRA (21750points) July 21st, 2016

Money, friends, qualifications, kids/grandkids, chances or perhaps nothing is missing and it is fine as is.

$500,000 would change my life.
Half that would, come to think of it.

I’ll settle for $100,000.

Right now I can honestly say nothing is missing though grandkids would be nice.

Money, for sure. I have been a have and am now a have not. Have is better. lol
I wasn’t rich but I was comfortable and didn’t have to worry that a $500— several thousand dollar emergency would be something I couldn’t handle like I do now.

Having a savings safety net is priceless.
I am pleased though with my new little living digs, I just moved about 6 weeks ago and am really liking my new situation. I am, surprisingly surprised at how well I am managing on a very compromised income these days, sans the lack of saving ability and fear of a costly emergency like my car blowing up or a cat-a-strophic vet bill.
That said though, I am happier than I have been in over 3 years.

It is not easy to digress in life.
You can’t miss what you never had but man, can you miss what you did have.

Stable job.

My career is peppered with fabulous jobs that just don’t last. And, I’m getting to old to go through the job-hunt-meat-grinder every 5 years.

There is absolutely nothing outside myself that I could add that would make me feel right. I have found that what makes me feel right comes from within and was there all along. I feel right.

Energy, it’s my only complaint these days.

@Hawaii Jake you ARE blessed to have reached that level.

Job security. I still don’t know if I will have a job after Sept. 1.

A full time job for my son and a new apartment for my grandson who lives with me.

A job. I quit my job as a teacher’s assistant yesterday because of a run-in with administration. On the upside, I immediately contact my former empoyer, and they’ve already reached out to me.

It’s very sad to hear I’m the fifth person here to mention job security.

Time. I’m bouncing around way too much.

A graduation, so that I can get out of my school and face no more exam stress.

I think it’s estrogen.

I know right @Judi? Is that all it is? Sheesh.

Love.

There were 2–5 years of my life I felt I had unqualified love from another person.
If I had that back, I might be able to return it.

If I’d known I hit the Love Lottery, I would have spent much more wisely.

Life partner.

Aster's avatar

A husband with energy, strength and the ability to do physical work and run. I had no idea how wonderful it was that he could hand craft ceiling beams for our first home in 1987. I took it for granted he would always be strong and active.

Peace of mind

A worthwhile job and a loving and fun partner.
