Perpetually unhappy
That's me. It's not a state of permanence, but it feels as though it is as it's been here so long that it's hard to see past it at this juncture. For one reason or another, I'm just not very happy. I'd have to feign ignorance to say I don't know what's causing me to be so unhappy, so I won't bother. But to that point, I can't exactly spell it all out for the world to read either. Which goes against the openness I try to have on my blog in the first placed. Therein lies there catch 22.

:( Hope you start feeling better again soon!
ReplyDeleteI have some dissatisfaction going on and I can barely stand it...my blog is read by people I work with and that is what is causing some of the consternation....so I can't mention it....so here I am blabbing it on your blog. So sorry, I hope we both find our way. Soon.
ReplyDeleteUnderstand what you mean. I have made a commitment not to post negative comments or comments that would leave minds question or get tongues wagging. It is so hard not to journal.some of the things going on. Sometimes I feel like I might bust if I don't get it out. Mama always said "if you don't have something nice to say then don't say anything".
ReplyDeleteSo sorry. Hope things change for the better soon. xoxo
ReplyDeleteI'm new to your blog. However, I already love the candidness. We all go through what you are going through. The promise that "it will get better" is in the very identification of your own emotions and self-knowledge. Most people will not acknowledge their own state, which holds them captive otherwise. You're obviously a very smart woman. You will succeed in coming out on the "better" side of this! (Just honest wisdom to offer.....hope you don't mind.)
ReplyDeleteI understand what you mean, and I'm having the same thing, too.
ReplyDeleteBut-- I think I saw you last week in Cannon with your boss and loved your pink outfit. Hope we both feel better soon!!
Oh girl! I'm so sorry you're still blue. Sending you warm and happy vibes!
ReplyDeleteOh, I so understand. I have been feeling rather stuck in that state for awhile now. I hope you start feeling better.
ReplyDeleteI have just stumbled upon your blog through a google search..."perpetually dissatisfied" as that's how I feel. I'm across the pond in the UK and have just read your comment and can empathise. I have nearly all the things a person could ask for; a good job, a lovely wife, a house, some caring and fantastic friends. With all of those things I still feel dissatisfied. I wouldn't say I'm unhappy, just not quite satisfied with my lot. I just read an interesting article on the web about the philosophy of dissatifaction and it suggested that it shows a drive to change things and that a completely satisfied person would be completely without motivation. I hope this is the case, if it is then maybe we should channel our motivation towards things that we feel strongly about improving, perhaps that will start making me feel more comfortable with my dissatisfaction. I find it hard to talk to people I know about my feelings, I'd like to thank you for your blog and to wish you well. I hope you get some comfort out of your dissatisfaction in the future.
