Don't let me hear you say life's taking you nowhere....
I've noticed that some members are kinda "down" and seem to be of the opinion that "things are tough and not going well for me".
As someone who likely has more "miles on the odometer" than you, please allow me to offer a well-intended observation.
Life IS good! Especially now. Now is the time to live. Grab it with both hands, ride the tiger, don't let go, savor the good and the bad. The joy and the pain will add to your experience and eventually to your appreciation when you have the ability to look back on what is "today".
I know, corny. But I was shuffle-listening, this Bowie song came up, and it made me think. About today, my past "golden years" and how today is also going to be a "golden year" when I look back on it later.

1 ReplyIs "ride the tiger" a metaphor for masturbation in this context? It would make sense...

Don't give up, because if you do, you become tumor cells to your community and country.

Life IS taking me nowhere. It's just cereal, do you really expect it to get me ANYWHERE?!

1 ReplyIf life seems jolly rotten, there's something you've forgotten, and that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing. When you're feeling in the dumps, don't be silly chumps; just purse your lips and whistle - that's the thing. And always look on the bright side of life.

People don't appreciate what they have. I think we can all agree that we should take a bit of time to think about how lucky we are, we have food, clothes, water and shelter, and [i]most[/i] of us have an education. Think of the starving kids in Africa, you're not that bad off are you?

1 Reply"Grab it with both hands". What, the girl in the picture?

6 RepliesWhile I can appreciate both your taste in music and the general message of the thread, I don't think it's quite accurate to minimize someone's current state in life as an opinion.

I believe this is relevant "An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward. When life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means it's going to launch you into something great. So Just focus, and keep aiming."

2 RepliesI just can't agree with you on this, I just can not view things this way.

Well, I do agree that life always takes you somewhere, even if the only destination is a lonely death, just some people can't handle that They need people to talk to, yet I do believe on "here" isn't perhaps the best place for it
