To be honest Debbie right now. I like to remember when I was younger and more attractive, and in better shape, and had no bills. I took long motorcycle trips with my first serious girlfriend and did not have a care in the world, however the growing pains truly hurt, all the stupid mistakes I made growing up. Now being a grown man and in a place in my life where I am content and understand who I really am, my happiest time is right now and I enjoy the small things in life more.

thanks. I also appreciate the small things in life now. flowerforyou

it was 3am in the morning rolling through Colorado. I made a life decision to remove all the crap people have given me the lies the drama the bs. the fears anything negative get rid of it. It worked that night I'm happy content in myself now. positives are happening now.

Happiest Moment:

Hearing the voices of my parents on the phone after more than 15 years of not knowing if they are alive or dead.

It is not even about the money I sent, that they are grateful about. It is the relief I guess, I have heard in their voices, that I too am still alive..it feels surreal:)

It is the profound joy of knowing, that I still have the chance to take care of them..
It is the knowledge that I still have the chance of making them happy..
it just bested all the adrenalin-fun-stuff kind of happiness I have in the past:)
Incomparable.

wow, that must have been unbearable. brokenheart

Thank god, they were alive. flowerforyou

For myself, my happiest period of time was when I was training to be a nurse and helping people mentally and physically sick. It felt so nice helping the sick and the vulnerable in every way and helping take those worries away the best I could and made sure they knew and felt they were cared for.

Just holding an old lady's hand who is frightened and talking and listening eases that patients fear.

It meant so much to them and such a small act from me.

I loved every second of it.

breaks my heart that I cant do nursing ever again due to my own health issues. brokenheart

BUT, that still was my most happiest time in life for a long period of time. Theres many more, but there more daily events.

I wouldn't say that training to be a nurse was a happy time .. Laughing .. It was a time of continual assessment .. Exams .. Long hours .. Lack of confidence and skill . In fact myself and many of my friends questioned what the hell we were doing . The reality of nursing is far different to the ideal . As a student you are sheltered somewhat . . I am happy I not only survived but I work and thrive in one of the most challenging specialties of nursing .

Just curious How long were you a nurse for and What area of nursing did you work in Debbie .... Must have been very difficult to give up your career . ..but your health is more important . Hope you found something as equally rewarding to fill your days with flowerforyou

I loved the experience, that's just me. Your post doesn't relate to this thread, its about happiness.

And no I haven't found anything equally rewarding. But I didn't just do it to feel good myself anyway, so that doesn't matter. Its something I don't like to think about, difficult just doesn't cut it.

The happiest time in my hole life was when I was 16. My dad took me to place called St. Johns, Antigua. I had freedom for the first time. I enjoyed every second of it and didn't want to come home when it was all over with. Hope one day I can go back.

I learn a lot, where to go and who to talk to. Got to see thing, that other people don't get to see or experiment. Learn to stay out of the casino. Other then that I really did enjoy my self.

freedom Is great. :banana:

The first time he smiled at me and said hello ..
The first time I heard his voice full of laughter .. Such a sexcy accent
The first time I saw his face .. Those dark eyes so intense
The man he is .. Makes me melt smitten

Hello Debbie waving

The whole year 2009. I had a new job that fullfiled me, great collegues which were more friends than just collegues, lived modestly but didn�t have to worry if I can afford what I need or want, as a matter of fact I had no worries at all. Didn�t have a partner but neither did I felt that I want one. I was so simply happy and satisfied without any needs or struggles like never before or after.
Giving a lot but also receiving so much from the world.
That year seems to me like a year of pure happiness and satisfaction.

Debbie, thank you so much for posting this, it gave me pause to really think about this. I have to say I can't pick out a time where I was the happiest.

Even through all the heartbreaks, stresses etc.

I first thought to post when I was a kid and running free, then I thought to post when I married my husband, til he died.

Then I thought to post those hard years when I was raising my children alone and how close we became.

Then I thought to post about my self discovery years,when I moved to Sitka.

Then I thought to post meeting Pancho and how my life is going now.

Honestly this thread gave me pause to reflect and come to the decision there is to much happiness for me to take one time frame.

I believe I am happy no matter what I may have moments when the world is raining mud but deep down I am a happy person.

Again thank you so much for posting this thread

I have had many happy moments, for different reasons that made each happy.

I have had many painful moments, that were blessings in disguise.

I have had many profound moments, that can still bring joy to my heart.

I have had many sad moments, that helped me find humor in many things.

I can safely say...the sum of it all, lets me look at things more positively...

...such that the happiest moment of my life... is always something i can still look forward to.

I can relate to this^^.
It is very rewarding to be able to make a difference in someone's life, and especially while still only learning how.

It is different when you are a bona fide professional practicing your craft. Tho, it is still rewarding, it is still challenging, there is something to be said about the experience of doing so as a trainee that makes the experience more memorable and worthwhile.

For me, you still make that positive difference that you mentioned above.

I honestly think that you are one of the few who truly embodies the Nightingale pledge even tho you no longer work in the hospital or another health institute. It is a part of you and you should be proud to carry that with you in whatever you do, most especially in the routine events of life.

The happiest time of my life was my childhood years, so young, carefree and innocent from all the realities of the world. I came from a big family with 8 siblings, the house was always full of noises and laughters, shouting, running, playing and fightin :smile:

Almost every night when my father goes home after work he would always bring us presents or food like pizza and we will all eat together. On weekends , it's family day(sunday) we all go together to watch a movie, sometimes go to the beach , eat dinner outside , other times we play bowling. It was really fun and I missed it so much especially on christmas and new year's eve too, the house was so noisy with loud music , singing, dancing and playing games. The house is different when it is filled with many children ,and now that we are all grown ups......those days are gone ..... each of us have our own life to live and far away from each other. Our home used to be complete when all the family gather together but now very seldom that we celebrate all together :cry:

some have their own family now and others living and working away from home . If I could only turn back the time , I want to relive my happy and memorable childhood days.

lovely story. flowerforyou

and I understand. when my twin moved out and my sister and my twins girlfriend because she lived with us as well, the house just felt so empty and quiet. But we have those lovely memories we can cherish forever. :heart:

We may feel sad because we missed those events or experiences in our lives and the peole who were closed to us, but reminiscing the past brings back happy memories that stays in our hearts forever and from time to time it gives us a smile and a tear to our eyes.

Thanks for this thread Debbie , you made us walk down memory lane and gave us happy thoughts :wink:

Yah, childhood memories always give me a smile :smile:

Thank you Debbie, I put new pics because of the thread your life in picture and since I don't know how to post a pic coz I tried but didn't work so I put it in my profile instead :smile:

same here, I always smile from childhood memories.

ha ha, I was innocent then, I was only 17. Ive changed so much since then for the better. I had 7 more years growing time due to a major medical set back in child hood. So the twins got bigger laugh

, and I blossomed later on in life. flowerforyou

Its is nice to see me when I was pure and innocent though. laugh

When was the hapiest time of my life?

During my high school time. When we are having bonfires in the mountain with my friends during weekends. Picnics in the river if we have nothing to do.
