Happy/Sad

thought I'd open a thread to ask what's making you happy these days, or if you have any advice for those of us who feel sad or stuck. I've been reading The Happiness Curve, which talks about how dissatisfaction is common for people in their 40s and should be brought into the open and treated as a phase of life as important as adolescence. The book doesn't offer many solutions but knowing there's an end to this feeling is good, I guess?

Follow up question - re finding what you want to do / your path (a recurring theme in things I read & hear), do you think people have a calling or are fated to follow a certain path? I currently feel fairly cynical about it.

I have some advice for you if you want to be happier Spare Ben. Find a way to help other people. Find some time in your week to volunteer somewhere. You get out of your own head for a bit when you're focused on other peeps for no other reason than you want to make their lives a little better for a bit.
