Don't joke about being dead (today's not the day).
Life is too short for dwelling over things. Improve yourself and hold your head up high.
NO MAN is worth upsetting yourself over.
You got that right sista! I don't know what you two have been talking about but life definately IS too short to dwell on things that can't or won't be changed. I guess I'm the kind of person who wears rose colored glasses and sees things in a positive light. Perhaps this is bad in some people's eyes. But I think that going around being miserable doesn't help matters and its not going to do anything but make you stressed, depressed and worn out. And don't say how would I know about being miserable. I had to watch my mom and dad die. My brother has been through hell and back with cancer he's battled for many years now. I lost a brother I never even got to meet. I've seen lots of family pass on and its definately not a pleasure. I almost choked to death, drowned, and almost never made it home from the hosptial. My one brother who went away for a period of time was so worried he would never get to see me again because of my poor health when I was a kid. Life definately IS worth living and nothing can beat your spirit down unless you let it. Now I will get down offa my soapbox! :)
LOL. I get depressed, and to be honest I put things in my body that are a hell of a lot worse than alcohol.
But, you survive, and thats what makes a rich person, experience not money
Survival is the key. :) And I'm far from perfect! I do things to my body that are just as bad as anything! Like eat stuff that isn't good for me! Thats just as bad as alcohol or anything else. I don't go around preaching to people about their lifestyle. Its a choice they themselves make. :) I think going through difficult periods make a person stronger and also helps them appreciate it when things are better. :) I get depressed too. :) Really! :)
I went through a real junky phase. I was wasted the whole last 2 years of high school.
I only went to school to buy drugs, as it was so accessible.
Shocking, I use rarely now, and my only vice is cigarettes, which makes me stink, but better than crack.
I feel better now though. Music and art get me through. With me either painting or playing the geetar when im low.
I eat a lot of bad stuff and I get so mad at myself. I am a diabetic but I eat way too much sugar and carbs..which I'm not supposed to have or very few of. I would never presume to judge someone on their habits or vices. My sister and brother smokes a lot. My sister has tried the patch on numerous times and can't stop. I've never had anyone I know who used or uses drugs..except for this one co-worker who lost her job over her drug use. They tested her for it at work and was given a second chance and she was let go the second time she tested positive. I'm glad for your sake that you don't use anymore. Its hard getting off of that stuff from what I understand. Congrads for you.
