30-50%, depending on the day. Yep, my baseline happiness has been low for many years. I find happiness fleeting at best.

I'm pretty content, but I'll be even happier once I can find decent employment.

This was a short TV news segment. I tried to do a poll and it wasn't working.
This can turn into a talking point if anybody wants...wasn't thinking about that at first.
I will offer ONE thing, ha...Never think happiness will be found outside...outside of
inside of YOU!*
That is why people have little fleeting moments.

*Not a vacation, more money, a baby or new puppy, a different house, a woman and so on...Nope,
you'll still go up and down...it has to be found inside of your self...no belief in God necessary, either...
takes effort, tho.
Starts with Thought Control...watch the stupid thoughts that just bring you doubt, worry, fear,
depression, low-self esteem, indignation...Stop those stupid-a** thoughts!!~!!
You change the channel when you don't like something, right?

Takes practice is all...you are in control, you are the captain of your own ship.

Think better thoughts.

I just turned 45. I'm at the lowest point in my life these days due to my financial situation, so it's been tough to stay the usually happy person I've always been. Since the last week, I'd say 65%, which is the lowest I've ever been in my entire life.

I'm in overall pretty good health, but have never felt the same since January 2017 due to a couple of little- more-than minor issues.

I believe in God & pray to Him, so I pray that He gets me out of this difficult time. He's definitely made ways for me in the past & at the perfect time, including a recent miracle that helped out greatly, so I don't really fret now, but it's hard not to.
