Fuck it all and just be happy in the present. Easy to say, hard to do, but it all really is a state of mind that you give yourself. Like now, even when there are so many shitty things going on around me, I can still say that I'm somewhat content. No use in letting everything drown you when all you can do is give things time and effort. Sure, everyone's allowed their down times...just don't get caught up in everything and let it drown you. I'm glad I finally figured this out. Took me a while cause I used to let myself drown in my sadness, self-pity and pessimism. Not worth it at all...live up to your own standards and fuck everyone else.

hah.. erica actually i am quite content with how life is. i just thought i would play the pessimistic devil that sits on ppl's shoulders. im not a horrible person, i swear, not particularly cuz its something to think about, or looking at things in a different light and im not the first person to think/write this kinda stuff.
if you wish for me to look on the brighter, optimistic side of things, sure. but it ends up twisting itself around usually.. "you are given life by your parents, not because they were forced to, but because they chose to, you are wanted. they spent 9 months carrying you in their womb. time, money and affection put into it, and then you were born and they regret saying no to abortion. goddamn i hate kids." let me try again, "god is our friend, lets call him up and see if he wants to hang out." damn i dont seem to have much faith either.. im going to hell for that comment. wait.. i dont believe in a heaven/hell... dammit! you can be content with how your life is going and pessimistic at the same time.. if i wasnt pessimistic, would i be stabby? ;] at least im managing well. but i am really happy for you and how your life is going, well deserved hun. well deserved. on a lighter note: i dont have a problem with anyone or religion or anything, no really, i dont. |

you can't live your life on the observations of failures and shortcomings of others.
life is not digital. it is not 1 or 0, on or off, yes or no. oversimplifying everything is a cop out from reality, don't make martyrs of yoruself or other people. r. |

hmm i see your point werdyboy, but there are ppl that make observations of failures of others for a living, psychiatrists for an example. i know, life is not black and white, theres a lot of grey areas, some ppl just dont function like that. you can acknowledge something but not agree with it.
i dont believe in EVERY single thing i said in this thread, they are just random thoughts. |

... but are u "content" urself.. do you feel that your life is pointless, that you have no worth? [jus wondering what motivated u to post this...]
uhhh i didnt make this post for me.. i am quite content with how my life is rolling right now. never before did i say that this post was about me, its about my thoughts on the world and people but never did i say that i felt that way. it was more so me preaching pessmistically. as why? cuz i like to preach bitter wisdom. its just the way i am. and how i determine whats worth it is how it affects me. im a selfish cunt, its all about me. i have no time to dwell on other matters, yes.. slight sarcasm. live in the present, don’t dwell in the past and don’t fear the future. That doesn’t mean I don’t have goals or ambitions.. but really, it’s not the end of the world if things don’t go exactly how I had planned.. cuz nothing ever goes as planned. It’s about being happy with who you are and accepting your faults.. cuz we’ve all got em... It’s about being happy with who you are and accepting your faults.. the past is gone and done with, the future is too far ahead, i only care about the now -- a hedonistic lifestyle has proved effective in keeping me content. things are probably better when they DONT go my way, i can accept my obvious flaws as a cynical, impulsive ranting cunt, can you accept them? :172: contentment.. why not be content with what you have?... i am. be content no matter what happens to you, because obviously there are gonna b downsets in anyone’s life... obviously. you don’t find contentment in these things you mentioned... they will only temporarily bring you happiness... contentment is something inside you.. it’s how you see yourself, how you percieve life.. things like that... happiness does not come gift-wrapped and handed to you... im quite content being pessimistic actually.. i feel weird when im optimistic.. i appreciate the feedback but this isnt a "help me" type post. i like your attitude breezy but its not the way i work. we can still coexist right? i mean if my attitude doesnt bother me, theres no reason why i should have to change it. i can see things in your light but i choose to stick with what im used to and works for me. |

ya.. I didn't mean to start an argument or nething... ;] everyone has diff views and it's sorta neat to see the way other ppl think.. I'm not tryin to change ur attitude at all... it just sorta seemed like you were tryin to accomplish sumthing with sharing your pessimistic point of view... so I jus thought I'd add my thoughts on the matters mentioned...
anyways.. it's neat how you can be content by believing these things, as yes I accept them.. jus don't agree 100%... see I'm easily depressed so I have to keep myself in that optimistic p.o.v., and if I believed what u said there I'd probably go out n kill myself.. heh.. but we're all different right? peaceout sista ~breezy |

i didnt think of it as an arguement, more like a conflict in ideas or what not.. everyone has diff views and it's sorta neat to see the way other ppl think.. I'm not tryin to change ur attitude at all... it just sorta seemed like you were tryin to accomplish sumthing with sharing your pessimistic point of view... so I jus thought I'd add my thoughts on the matters mentioned... i appreciate it... i enjoyed your post actually :) anyways.. it's neat how you can be content by believing these things, as yes I accept them.. jus don't agree 100%... in my eyes the world is an ugly place and ppl (including me, actually probably ESPECIALLY me. hehe) can be such parasites. and im alright with that. see I'm easily depressed so I have to keep myself in that optimistic p.o.v., and if I believed what u said there I'd probably go out n kill myself.. heh.. but we're all different right? whoa nelly! maybe i need disclaimers at the beginning of my posts.. i used to do that all the time.. .stabitout. |

heh.. heh.. heh..
i read this thread a while ago... but didn't feel like replying to it earlier... but here's i am :) I'm basically thinkin the same as breezy but here's a lil adding... I"m just glad that words don't chip into me that easily lately.. I read something and most of the time it makes no sense.. hahahahaha... anyway... it's funny how everything you all said, i can some what relate to and agree with. It's kind of like different sides of me.. If I was in a pessimistic mood, then I would agree with stabby.. if Iwas more optimistic, which I am now, I agree with breezy n erica... They're all like lil tid bits of me... i don't know where I"m going with this post... so, ta ta fer now. |
