My life is tough emotionally but that's information for more inquisitive people, when it comes to life I simply look at it like this, I don't want to give it the satisfaction of bringing me down.
Iam not thrilled with it right now, and only recently before i thought it was getting better. I hate my job and my boss, but I can handle that if everything else was going okay. I have fallen for a girl but we haven't had a chance to talk so I am in Limbo about it. I think I may actually be having a mid-life crisis, I am 49 and it has just hit me that I don't really have much of anything to show for my life. I don't want to get married, but have hardly dated much during my life and feel cheated. My thoughts are consumed by this girl, I think she may like me, I'm not saying I am in love, but I do know that I am very fond of her, and I am almost in tears every time I think about her lately..WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?
Separate what's within my power and what's not, break down problems into manageable chunks, check my resources, check my perspectives, check my facts, reach out if and when necessary solve any in ways that leaves my imprint on this world (staying true to myself). Rinse, lather, repeat.
And it never hurts to throw in some love and joy into that.
My life is glorious because I've assumed responsibility for my own happiness. There are innumerable books that offer paths to happiness. "Man's Search for Meaning" is the best selling one. I like those by the Dalai Lama. The quickest means to overcoming depression is, however, aerobic exercise. As always the problem is self-discipline.
no! my life doesn't suck...sure there's the good and the bad....but overall, it's pretty darn good. what do i do about it when it does? i make changes to make it better...it usually works according to the effort i put in it.
and since i'm awesome, i always make sure anything sh*tty that happens to me straightens out, and so my life is therefore awesome
And it never hurts to throw in some love and joy into that.
