Would make you happy.
As in, not temporarily satisfied, but truly, wholly, happy.
Me: Falling asleep, waking up in Heaven.

Originally posted by FreakyKBHSometimes I think it would be good to live nearer to relatives (some of them elderly) back in the country where I was born and where they live. Either that, or for access to them (for my children too) to be far easier than it is. That would increase my happiness, I suppose.
What would make you happy.

I suppose not having to put up with the asshattery of some of the people I am required to work with would improve my happiness.
Brexit would prove my happiness.
Winning a significant amount on the lottery to enable me to improve the lives of those close to me would improve my happiness.

It sounds like you are very unhappy, if you weren't unhappy, that would improve my happiness.

Perhaps unsatisfied with small things, but overall, I consider myself happy.
Always room to grow, I think.
The ultimate happiness, however, is the crux of the question.
Even if all the small unsatisfying things somehow (inexplicably or otherwise) went "my" way, none of them alone nor all of them together could possible measure up to that ultimate happiness in my scale of values.
Originally posted by FreakyKBHYou sound like you need religion to give you consolation and a bit of a lift ~ to convince yourself you have something really out of this world to look forward to. And it would seem, judging by your OP - where you say "Falling asleep, waking up in Heaven" would make you happy - that's what you've got from your beliefs in the supernatural. If it gives you comfort to dream about waking up in "heaven", I say good for you. 🙂
