    [JUSTIFY]Infertility is very hard to deal with. Emotionally it is very draining. But we will all have our happy moments inspite of this struggle. I would like to hear from you what makes you genuinely happy :) ? All those small happiness which makes life worthwhile. We can collect all those happiness at one place and we can also learn from each other how to be happy inspite of all the struggles and heart-breaks :thumbsup

    For me :

    1) When I hear from my loved ones (especially my mom's voice and e-mails from friends !)

    2) When I get honest appreciations

    3) When I write what I go through

    4) When I meet my friends and chat with them for hours

    5) When my DH enjoys the food I make for him

    6) When I am with pets (especially with cats)

    7) When I see naughty young children :)

    The list will go on.............

    Can I hear from you all, please ?[/JUSTIFY]

    hi Daffodils,

    A good post to share... After reading your post, I keep thinking and it makes my heart and mind weigh less ,when thinking of happy moments... To be of frank, I have forgotten my status if I am happy or not... The things which come across is infertility and family problems....

    But thank u, for making me to remember my happy moments...

    I used to be happy:

    1.When I watch my fav star film
    2.When I am happily cooking especially for my hubby,
    3.When I read any success stories either in internet or in Indusladies..
    4.When talking to my lovely dad and sisters,
    5.The one thing which will definitely help me ut is talking with my college frds regarding my college days...

    Thank u for starting a very nice post...
    Lets wait for others to reply too...

    [JUSTIFY]Dear Sruthi,

    You are like a breath of fresh air : ) Although you are young you think really deeply. Thank you dear for being so supportive ! Yeah, we forget our happiness amidst our struggles and we need to remind ourselves that we have happy moments too which needs to be remembered and treasured !


    Sruthi, who is your favourite star ? Rajinikanth ? For me Vijay - thalaivar siripe thani azhagu, dance innum super :)
    I will continue ....


    I feel very happy when I gift something (to see the happiness in the receivers face) and to receive small, surprising gifts too : )

    In fact my husband and I, both talk about it quite often... that the things which we are blessed with.. and should be thankful to... sharing my thoughts, dreams and happy memories with him are somethings that gives us happiness :)..

    i enjoy every moment. but when i think about it i feel sad, so cut the thorughts immediatly, like how i avoid the thoughts about death, even if it is sure.

    i watch friends (tv program) every day.already watched at least 15 times full season:)
    Talking to sweetest DH makes me the happiest person
    Having good sleep makes me happy
    I do whatever i feel to do then andthere to make me happy.:)
    Always plan for trips, now i am thinking about my next trip to ITALY.... yaaayyyyyyyy,..:)

    Really a needed discussion for those TTC. Here is a list of things that makes me happy:

    1. Work, keeps me occupied and little success there satisfies me
    2. Husband, he makes me happy, tolerates my tantrums and he is always there when I need him
    3. Tv shows - do not underestimate this powerful tool! Shows such as big bang theory, how I met your mother and other shows brings me to another world
    4. Social life - be it with friends or neighbours makes life a little easier
    5. Last but not least being thankful makes me happy - well settled, a house, comfortable life, good health etc makes up for the struggles

    Let's live in this moment and worry about tomorrow later.
    Cheers.
