Even when it sucks. Even when you don't know what you are doing. Even if you are all alone in this world. Love your life.

Afraid I cant really find too much to love at the moment. Difficult to ask people to love the very thing they are trying to escape from.

This posts reminds me of a friend who once told me to love myself. My response was how the hell do I do that. It's really not that easy and some just don't know how. It takes a while to learn.

This goes along with something I read today. It was a Buddhist thing about why awful things happen. The whole point of the article was "forgiving" life for being unfair, being harsh, forgiving for all the slaps and marks. We cannot let go of anger and jealousy and hatred and sadness until we forgive life for being unfair and love our life unconditionally.

It really meant a lot to me. This reading really hit home with me! Thanks for the back up post. : )

"Easier said than done."

Of all the cliche phrases people utter this one pisses me off the most. It is an obvious and worthless thing people say when they are making excuses.

EVERYTHING is easier said than done. It is ALWAYS easier to say something than it is to actually DO it.

By the way, who lied and told you life was supposed to be easy?

Yeah...snore. Go ahead and sleep through your whole life for all I care. Go ahead and keep doing whatever is easiest for you. Live in fear and keep torturing yourself if you aren't brave enough to do anything else.

Or, you know, realize that life is not so bad and start enjoying it. The choice is yours. I am not afraid anymore. I know that if I embrace my struggles I will become stronger for it.

I'm glad at least one person saw the wisdom in this concept. I sympathize for the rest who just don't get it.

I appreciate the support that this forum offered me during some very dark times and I thank the people who listened to me and gave me advice. I seldom took it but thank you nonetheless. I just thought I would try and do the same and hope that someone, even just one person, would be inspired by it. Other than that I'm not wasting any more of my life here.

Just remember that people ARE supposed to feel things. Sadness is NOT a disease. Ignorance IS.

Errm, you joined this forum about 30 days ago and have gone from "very dark times" to posting bromides about "loving your life."

If nothing else, you should have a bit of sympathy for those of us who are unable to make such amazing, whiz-bang turnaround in all of a month. :rolleyes:

I contemplate life and Suicide/suicidal-ness a tragedies.. I don't think it is so much we want our life to end, but we want the pain, stress, unbearable feelings, memories (could be one or all or even more than what I've just noted) and etc to stop, so we think... "Well, if I have no life, I'll not have this" .. But this isn't the best way guys, you'll all be in my thoughts and payers that you'll find the hope and strength to carry on.

I like your poem carolyn! I have felt that way many a time! Actually, just this morning.

I personally believe that we all have our own road to walk. My road is not as easy as some other people's appear. For example, people who have not lost anyone their whole lives as they approach 45-50. Or, people who just always seem happy. I have had a lot of barriers, a lot of struggles, and a lot of pain. I also do believe there is something chemical or physical about my brain that affects my mood sometimes.

I just keep trying new things to stay upbeat. I want to enjoy my life and I have/will as much as I can. I wish I was a stronger person, but I have to accept myself the way I am.

Sheeeeeeiit. I know it seems impossible. Hell, I live with my folks I just got let go from my job, I dont' have a girl. DOn't have any prospects. I have maybe 4 true friends. I'm learning to get out there and just be me.

I'm just learning to love what I got. I mean, its hard to change or do anything. I know it is. But fuck, you aren't the worst thing ever. You can't be- you're alive. As long as you keep fighting you're beautiful.

Fuck the pretty people, the only reason people like them is because their earlobes are perfect. Ugly people, like me, they get people to like them because of personality.

he could have been going through a very rough patch, the thread starter. he's probably out of the woods for most part, but can still get lost in them easy enough if he/she dosnt keep thier head strait.

Zero I applaud your word's but with no offence it is easier said than done,simply because I'm sure most well pretty much everyone would be doing that and not be depressed.
