I am happy but I want more


Question Posted Saturday January 3 2015, 1:42 pm

Have you ever looked at a picture of a beautiful person or beautiful couple and feel happy. Every time I see a person who looks happy or in love, I just want what they have. I look at pictures online and whenever I see people with their bestfriend I wish I knew someone like them. I can't help but to want a bestfriend that I can have fun with. I also love seeing couples in love. I want love but I am not desperate for it. I daydream of going to six flags with my boyfriend and being all lovey dovey. I also picture having kids and taking them to Disney world. I love that I can create these wonderful thoughts but I want it in my reality. Can anyone relate to this?

The thing is, what you're feeling is more common than many people would think, so common, it is almost normal.
Lighthouse Family (if you're familiar with them) actually had a song for it. "You Always Want What You Haven't Got."

I can actually feel you daydream about these things, and I guess i did that too before.

But not so long ago, I've changed how i saw the world. And it made me more contented. I want to share this with you and it may help.

I saw a kid in a park who had a nasty scar in her face. So adamantly, I asked her how she got it. She said their house burned and her mom died in the fire and she got the scar from the incident. My heart moved for her as she told her story. When she finished telling her story, I asked her if what she thought about having her scars removed. Her eyes caught mine and she said "I don't think there's a need for that. Besides, they only mean my wounds have healed already."

The point is, we see our scars and immediately say they're ugly. We seldom think that they're there to remind us that our wounds have healed.

I hope this helped a bit. Good luck.

I can relate to that, and I don't think that is considered wanting more, when you don't have the things. Like it's one thing wanting a better relationship or boyfriend or something, when you already have one, but it's okay when you don't. I'm sure you'll get those things some day(:
Hope this helped~

I know what you are saying. More often I see a couple, middle age or older who care enough or love enough to be a couple, but it's very seldom I see two people who enjoy experiencing life together with all it's routine stuff included like doing chore, grocery shopping or walking thru a park or out sight seeing, etc.. That takes a great intensity and that kind is noticeable by all, the look of an older couple who people think might be newlyweds in a 2nd marriage. I have not yet seen this kind of love in young people. But I can remember in detail those few couples I came hough it may be many years but I get a happy smile anytime I happen to remember them.
And yes, I have accidently come across a single person for example, like in a seminar I took, the teacher who really stood out as a whole happy, caring person with great personality who I wished I knew or could take with me into my life, but this person lived out of state and traveled the country.
I am glad you are taking notice of these types of people, you know what they look like in general when they are talking or doing things. That's important when it comes to finding the same for you, especially in finding a love partner. If you'd like some idea's for how to go about this in a positive way that bring great results, let me know and I'll share on that. It would make this email too long. You can write to me by going to my column and choosing the write to me option. If you leave a response in rating comments, I cannot respond to you from there.

I feel you completely girl , I totally agree.. We must find this happiness we desire so much. We need the guy that wants the same things, a friend who wants the same things, and everything we could ever dream of will fall into place as long as we have a strong team who wants to obtain the same level of happiness.
