The woman I love The child we created Building a future as a family
Life is what you make it, we are all responsible for our own decisions and as such how our life turns out. If we make shit decisions, we have to turn that around and make things how we want them to be. Nobody will come along and hand us what we want, take away the pain or guide us to our Nirvana. Unhappiness, not being where we want in life is down to nobody but us, plain and simple. Take responsibility, change it. Be all you can be, do all you can do, live life and grasp your chance with both hands. | |

Bullshit. You can be happy and sick, you can be happy and poor, you can be happy and all sorts of things. If you don't wish to take responsibility then that is exactly what I am talking about. Whatever. Your happiness is your responsibility, not mine. Assesing your goals and abilities is key to happiness. | |

Oh I will, thanks, I appreciate your best wishes. You see this outlook is why you will never be happy. Nothing in this life is 100%, including generalizations on a GD forum. In general, MOST people have their happiness in their own hands. I am sure, being the little ray of sunshine that you are and deciding to focus the negative you will find something to argue about. | |

dJJ said:I was born. I had no choice in that procedure. I'm alive because since then I've not had an accident or illness with deadly consequences. The answer to the meaning of life is 42.And that's it. Why does my life need a specific reason for existence?I'm not different from any other human being who is alive. No special reason for it. Just like my cat, the birds flying in the sky and the fish swimming in the canals. We'r all living in a few square feet in Amsterdam. For no special reason, just a chain of events that lead up the current situation. I do find living very painfull, harsh and challenging. And sometimes overwhelming wonderful and beautiful. Both kind of experiences amaze me and are impressive.My cat thinks the reason of my life is to take care of him.And I also agree with him. yes this, great answer | |

Be all you can be, do all you can do, live life and grasp your chance with both hands. We´re responsible for our own decisions but how life turns out to be is not only depending on our own decisions. Even if you a a born in a country where you get the chance to make something out of yourself (millions of people don't even have that chance) you also have to have the mental ability to do so. Not everybody has that, so to say we decide how our life turns out to be is way too simple.My parents for example have been struggling for years with life now, they don't know how to change it and they just don't have the power to do so. | |

But it's not just about being negative; it's about considering the real, material basis on which all these things that might contribute to our 'spiritual' wellbeing (being able to fulfil one's true potential, working on something that you truly value, holding a position in which other people grant you recognition and respect, etc) is based. Yes, each of us can find fulfilment in things like our family relationships, etc, and people do, but it's not all down to individual choice. A couple of examples: It's often a meaningful, fulfilling thing to marry the person you love, but if the law of the land forbids you from doing that, you have less opportunity to achieve that than those whose ability to marry is not impeded. The argument that it all boils down to 'what you make of it' is therefore a deeply conservative one, in this respect. It would mean we say to the gay people looking for 'aequalitas' in terms of marriage rights, "Look, if you're not happy, it's you're own fault. Happiness is in your own hands; it's an individual matter. What you need to do is just be happy with what you've got and stop complaining that it's not as much as other people have."

Many a time it is so I don't have to do it again. I figure if I commit suicide, all the lessons that I was to learn in this lifetime I will have to come back and learn in another. Add to that that my daughter is but 11 yrs old and it would be devastating to her if I offed myself. They say that children of suicide victims never really get over it. Also, lastly, if I do rise out of the ashes in this lifetime after all these years it will be an amazing story. There came a time when the risk of remaining tight in the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom. Anais Nin. | |

We don't all have the same abilities, drive and motivations. Should we have the same opportunities to succeed? Of course we should. That does not mean we should all have the same things. Does not mean we all deserve to be millionaires. | |

I can't be bothered arguing with you. I have worked hard to change what is bad in to what is good. Enjoy looking at the bad in everything. There are no absolutes in this world, I thought that was a given, apparently to some people looking for a ruck that is not the case. Enjoy your life, I will certainly enjoy mine. Off for a dip in the pool now. Its 90 degrees and too hot for arguing. | |

It's so ironic, I think I've finally found my purpose in life today. I've found that I'm really good with trying to show people other ways of thinking without being forceful or trying to impose my opinions on them. I did this today at work and then thought back to other positions and situations in the past and found that I have a great pattern at achieving this even with the most "A" personality type people. So it makes me feel really good to realize that. I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. | |
