    Is everyone happy?
    Majority of posters live here in the US or UK and dont know what the hardships are going on in these 3rd world countries. I was just watching a video of my trip to Bangladesh in 2001 and boy, it just made me realize how ****en blessed and lucky we are, yet we complain day in and day out. The money we waste on a 5th of hennesy could feed a family for a month over there. Just wanted to share this with my fellow SBR so it can give u all a to realize we should be grateful for all that we have

          Happiness is relative. Most people in America are probably unhappy right now because their current level of living is below what they desire it to be. People in Ethiopia (for example) base their happiness on the ability to feed themselves. Human beings tend to self-correct so that their level of happiness is contingent on the events in their own lives, not relative to those in other areas. I dont think people in 3rd world countries are all that much more unhappy than the average American.

          In answer to your question I am currently slightly below happy, though I could be much worse off.

What if there were a snapping of fingers that broke the hypnosis?

              Most gamblers are not happy mainly because we have no money and always struggle to pay the bills.

              Not fun on a Sunday when you owe 3k to the book and do not have anything to pay him with.

                                    The last time Willie Nelson was NOT stoned was 1968. People have flunked drug tests because they got too close to his tour bus. Trust me, Willie toked up before that video.

                                    I'm happy; will be happier in three years, 11 months and 19 days.
