Am I Happy?

I think I am happy. Well aren't I?

I have money. I have a nice house and live in a seaside suburb. I have daughters and a wife - they are healthy, intelligent and successful. I have a good job - people say i am good at what I do and earn good money. People seem to like me and say I am a good person.

So if I am happy, how come:

• I sigh a lot
  
• I frequently get frustrated
• I don't whole heartedly enjoy the success of others and secretly think their success is either lucky, not deserved or transitory
• I espouse giving but don't do much of it
• I fill my life with jobs which give me a sense of short term achievement
• I save money when I have lots of it
• I am lonely

So I have set myself a goal of starting this website and blogging about stuff that inspires me - like happiness. Not the usual trite consultant speak about what happiness is - but getting real about how I can turn my life around. And live a life that makes me jump out of bed each morning..

Wow - thats wasn't so hard was it? Blog one over and out.
