I should feel so lucky to have what I have! Why don't I?

Question:

I am 22 married with two healthy kids. I am a stay at home mom, and live each day for my kids. But am always sad inside, and unhappy. I feel guilty for feeling this way, when I see these awful things happening to the world. I should feel lucky. Why don't I? I always feel a heavy weight on my heart. It's hard to explain. People will probably make jokes and say I'm crazy. I'm just being honest. I just want to feel happy.

Answers:
Maybe you should take some time to yourself. I mean, to be a mother of 2 at 22 is a huge responsibility, so it's understandable for you to be stressed out, which may also be part of what you're feeling. It is hard to feel happy these days when there's so many terrible things happening, but you can't let what you can't control get you down. You can try and do little things that are nice for people, nothing that's too big if you don't want, even the small things can make someone's day brighter. Also, you should take some time to reflect on yourself, or talk to someone else, to try and get your feelings sorted out a little, then decide on what path you could take that would be most helpful to you and your family. Good luck, I'm sure you'll be happy soon. =)

Other Answers:
Maybe you should get out there and explore more of life with or without your kids.
