What are some of the worst experiences that have occured in your life? for me it would have to be the time I got bitten by a dog and when I lost my car in San Francisco.

Summer, 1991.

Do you really wanna know? I think I can pretty much top everyone on the Org.

Yes, do tell

Wow P, that's arough one. Can I count Highschool as one experience or so I have to list them all?

Paisley said:

Its a bit private 2 be honest. Added on top of it, I broke my arm badly.

Sweeny79 said:

I will accept high school.

JDINTERACTIVE said:

Oh I'm sorry to hear that.

Paisley said:

Good

Jeez I HATED highschool.

Sweeny79 said:

Paisley said:

I still hate it when people say "highschool is the best time of your life" I think those people should be shot

Paisley said:

I'll tell you tomorrow.

I can probably top you all. Back in 98, my boyfriend of 2 years married somebody that he only knew from talking over the phone. Some chick from down south. And the asshole didn't even tell me. I had to hear about it through the grapevine. Let me see yall top that.

Oh sweetie that is terrible.

OK

Unfortunately, we will all have bad experiences in life. Some of us will have a lot to deal with in one go, others may be more fortunate and have the bad times spread out over a number of years.

Something that has been on my mind this year is that there's no happy ending. In the end, either we will leave our loved ones or vice versa.

Not to put too much of a downer on things, but some of the experiences you've had will pale in significance to what's around the corner ...

In my opinion, what matters more are the happy times - or rather, appreciating the happy times. One message - don't waste them.

What you said reminds me of a poem I read a few days ago. I can't recall who wrote it but a line it it says:

"I believe that no one is spared the darkness but none of us gets it all"

I may not get it "all" but I damn sure get a lot. This thread could have been created just for me. I can go on and on about the crazy shit that has happened to me. If I told you guys the kind of bad luck I had, you guys would be like:omfg: I must have been a real hellion in a past life.

Until about a month ago? The whole previous 12 months.
But* fuck, has it ever made me stronger.

True, true... And what matters the most is when they leave are you in peace with them, with yourself...

I refuse to look at any experience as a "worst"...all experiences have positive value and worth, no matter if they're easy or difficult at first to live thru...my sister's death and funeral was definitely one of the harder ones, if not THE hardest...but it wasn't the "worst", because there is beautiful purpose contained within each moment we're blessed to have in our lives. Ignoring that purpose, that positive that my sister's death contained, would be an insult to her.

sooo many of these moments...

i don't wanna list them as i don't want to bring people down.

i think it suffices merely to say that these moments have been many for me, and picking the worst would be difficult

Raspberry said:

Very true.
Also, what is a "worst experience" is relative. That someone got left by a loved one might sound "easy" to someone who got run over by a car and has to spend the rest of his/her life in a wheelchair.
But the wheelchair bound person must keep in mind that being left by that loved one might have been a catastrophe of equal proportions to the other individual.
All we can do is to appreciate what we have when we have it while we have it.

So what happens if u get run over by a car AND left by your loved one?
