    This question is a little like the LBC topic for this week “why do you do what you do?”

    In the early 1990s I almost lost my life…when I didn’t think life was worth living. I survived but the camel that broke my back, is still vaguely in my life and we actually get on better now – I stop myself from getting too close to the hooves!

    What that did was make me, make some huge changes in my life and now I just like to doing things that mainly please me…

    This change in my abode status has made me think much more “it’s just about me…and I can do what I like, too bad about any camels that try to get inside my head…I have invested in an electric fence, & they get an electric shock if they overstep the mark”

    Like Ramana said.

    I’ve never had any significant issues with depressions, I’m in reasonably good health, and I’m in a long term relationship. I try to stay physically and mentally active so that I can enjoy life as long as possible.

    Music. I have many favourite musicians who lift my spirits the moment I listen to them. I couldn’t do without music, it reaches a part of me that nothing else reaches.

    LOL! that hobbes. he lives in the NOW.
    and I think maybe that might be the secret.
    it’s all we’ve got.
    and whenever it’s bad it passes. eventually. or else our attitude toward it can.
    pass I mean.
    I don’t know.
    it think I’ve never over~expected anything about my life so it’s been easy to enjoy it. that sounds very lazy and non reaching I’m afraid. but it’s true.
    I just play what I’m dealt. and i’m happy.

      Having no expectations is powerful. I’ve been watching Borgen, about a woman Danish Prime Minister. Ambitions like that rarely lead to happiness. 🙂

  5. What a great topic! I don’t think about it often enough. I’d say my family…and having a purpose every day. And exercise. I seem to crave it!
