So yesterday we got our wedding video!!!! Finally after 8 months but it was sooooo worth the wait. They did an amazing job! DH and I ended up watching the video twice, once by ourselves and once with our parents last night. I realized while I was watching it the second time that I looked happy. It is probably the last time I have been really and truly happy. Little did we know 2 months later I would find out I was pg and lost my job in the same day and m/c a month later. It was a reality check I think for me watching the video because I really thought that I found a happy place again. I really thought I found a good place since I am basically in the same circumstances I was in since my m/c. But watching the video made me realize that I am miles away from really being happy. I am not sure if I will ever be that happy again. I think back then I was too naive to things that could/would happen. I will be that happy again, maybe with just a scar on my heart then...
OK enough with this. Happy Easter everyone! Thanks for listening.
Re: Last time I was really happy....
I know some days can be very hard. I know it's hard to smile, thinking about what we went through. But if you can, think of the wonderful man at your side, your loving family, and the babies you will take home in the future.
Maybe if you can think of these positives in your life you can start rebuilding some happiness back into your life.

The good thing is that you were able to watch something that made you happy. Life sure does throw you for a ride. I never thought that I would be in this situation. I think the same thing as you about being happy again. We will get there and I hope its soon!!
((((Hugs))) I was telling DH last night that I just wanted to get a injection of "Happiness".
Looking at my wedding pictures always makes me happy... It was such a happy day, and I just have to think that I will have that same feeling of happiness again when we welcome a new one into our family. It's really hard never knowing when that will be, or even if it will. But I just HAVE to believe that we will all be happy like that again.

Yes. I agree. And "wedding day happiness" is a d@mn high standard that I am really not sure you want to aspire to, for your own good. I think contentment is a more reachable, and a more valuable, goal. Contentment is consistent, and it isn't determined by outside circumstances. It's determined by your response to those circumstances. I know, it is hard. My wedding pics actually make me sad sometimes, as Jessica said. ((hugs)) to you.
ETA: I reread this, and it sounds snappy--that was unintentional. I rephrased a bit. I hope you get to a happier place soon. I sincerely know how hard it is to be sad all the time and to find that what you now consider "happy" would have once just been "okay." More ((hugs)).
