Currently 4/5, but the best is yet to come.

I can't answer to this poll, since I'm trying to transcend emotions and feelings to get to a higher ground of conscience and illumination.

It's too chipper here, someone has to represent the miserable sad sacks of the world. This is the internet after all.

I never said I was unhappy. I'm neither happy, nor unhappy. I told you I was working to go beyond emotions in order to become a boddhisatva. But it's quite difficult: getting angry over PvP online games isn't the best way to get the illumination.

I'm generally happy (4/5), sometimes I'm unhappy, but when I'm happy I know that my life is happy in general. When I'm unhappy, I tend to think that I'm unhappy in general, but at the end of the day, it's not a problem, because I am aware at all times that my sense of happiness or, in that case, unhappiness is distorted or ostensible when I'm unhappy. So, you know you are generally happy when you are happy.

Not too happy, but then I'm one of those people who never is.

Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

Happy :) But there is always room for improvement. Right now I think my life is in a good place, and I think things will only get better.

I only picked "Happy" over "Very Happy" because I haven't won the lottery yet (either literally or figuratively). If I didn't have to work and I could just go wherever I want whenever I want--traveling at whim, for as long as I want, basically, then I'd be happier than I am, but aside from that, I'm happy.
