Doesn't it?

Sometimes, but other times make up for it.
Not exactly a "glass is half full" type, are you? |
|
Actually, no, I do not think that it does. |
|
|
yeah, just stop caring so much and its a tad better.
But it can be a real bitch sometimes. |
|
.....................and then you die.
suck it up, that's what alcohol is for. |
|
Life is what you make of it. It can be the best of times or the worse.
I have low standards. When I'm pushing a shopping cart, it's because I'm shopping for groceries and not because I'm trying to move my worldly possessions from one point to another. I'm not homeless and I'm not unemployed. I'm not stinking rich, but I'm not homeless and living on the streets. Bottom line, look at those who are less fortunate than yourself. Heck, you're not black and in the wrong tribe in Africa with someother tribe trying to kill you because of it. You're not being persecuted in some middle eastern country becuase of your religion (or lack thereof). You're not starving in Asia. You're American, you're here and you've enough ducats to have the web. Count your blessings. |

you know what I learned from south park, especially applies to woman.
If something makes you so sad it just means that there was something out there that made you soo happy for a while. |
|
Yes it sucks, sucks badly when you loose your job and find out your wife has been cheating on you all in the same week. So, yeah, life really fucking sucks right now.
|
|
Some times, but it usually beats the alternative Eeek, you've been around here a long time, feel free to IM me |
|
|
it has its ups and downs. I had an up day, but who knows what tomorrow might be like.
|
|
Arrrgh, I have been burning pine straw and barnches for four days, that is why life sucks. |
|
|
You are one of the few posters on this site whose posts I keep track of out of respect for your insights.
You have always been pretty upbeat. You okay?
|
|
|
Oh, WAH! when it 's been raining 90 days straight then you can whine! J/K, rain gets to me too sometimes. |
|
|
Wow, that DOES suck. I hope it gets better for you. |
|
|
I just wanted to chime in and say there must be something in the air this week - the last four days have SUCKED for me. I don't even know where I will be 30 days from now.
Oh well, I'm one of those Pollyanna types and refuse to dwell on the suck - I embrace it. |
|
You'll have that. But it always gets better. Well, until you die. Some might argue it gets better after that, but who knows...
|
|
Find something positive to focus on...
Try to enjoy something even if it is as simple as can be. Not trying to go Zen on you guys...but no matter how low it gets you are capable of a recovery by staying focussed and fighting off the self pitty. MT |
|
So, what's up? Yeah sometimes life isn't very fun .Take care.
|
|
Aw hell, if I talked about it I'd just be whining---and the tequila talking. People here have worse problems than mine. Sorry I bothered yall. Hell, I couldn't believe when I checked back the damned topic was two pages!
|
|
Sometimes bad shit even happens to good people. Love your family, and let your friends know you care about them.
I hope what ever is causing you grief gets better. Life is a rollercoaster enjoy the ride. |

Yeah, it sucks.
Bad Day - REM A public service announcement followed me home the other day. I paid it nevermind. Go away. Shit's so thick you could stir it with a stick-free teflon whitewashed presidency. We're sick of being jerked around. Wear that on your sleeve! Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times, Lord. Count your blessings. We're sick of being jerked around. We all fall down. Have you ever seen the televised St. Vitus subcommittee prize investigation dance? Those-ants-in-pants glances. Well, look behind the eyes! It's a hallowed, hollow anesthesized, "Save my own ass, screw these guys." Smoke and mirror lock down. Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times, Lord. Count your blessings. The papers wouldn't lie! I sigh. Not one more. It's been a bad day. Please don't take a picture. It's been a bad day. Please... It's been a bad day. Please don't take a picture. It's been a bad day. Please... We're dug in the deep, the price is steep. The auctioneer is such a creep! The lights went out, the oil ran dry, We blamed it on the other guy. Sure, all men are created equal. Heres the church, here's the steeple. Please stay tuned—we cut to sequel. Ashes, ashes, we all fall down. Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times, Lord. Count your blessings. Ignore the lowest fears. Ugh, this means war! It's been a bad day. Please don't take a picture. It's been a bad day. Please... It's been a bad day. Please don't take a picture. It's been a bad day. Please... I saw the light, it can't be right... Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times, Lord. Count your blessings. We're sick of being jerked around. We all fall down. It's been a bad day. Please don't take a picture. It's been a bad day. Please... It's been a bad day. Please don't take a picture. It's been a bad day. Please... |

My worst day was absolutely wonderful! My best day was indescribeable.
When it comes time to die I will fight it HARD. I WILL NOT go gently into that dark night.... |
|
Life is great – there are just sucky events that happen during it.
|
|
LOL my kid said that's an ugly scarecrow with that pumpkin !
|
|
My kids only need to hear sKerry's name or see a pic. before they start to pipe up "John Kerry is the Bad Guy" Then one will Inevitably ask the other 2 "Who's the Good Guy?" To witch they All replie George W. Bush! Cracks me up every time |
|
|
You have got to take the good with the bad. But keep an eye on the good stuff.
Don't let the bad crap get to you. |
|
see my most on my nightmare with the postoffice and then tell me why it doesn't suck
|
|
Today, is the best day of my life. Say that every day. Sun came up, went down, family is healthy, bourbon is tasty, ARF.com is alive.

WHENEVER LIFE GETS YOU DOWN, MRS. BROWN, AND THINGS SEEM HARD OR TOUGH, AND PEOPLE ARE STUPID, OBNOXIOUS OR DAFT AND YOU FEEL THAT YOU'VE HAD QUITE ENOUGH... Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving, And revolving at 900 miles an hour, That's orbiting at 19 miles a second, so it's reckoned A sun that is the source of all our power. The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see, Are moving at a million miles a day In an outer spiral arm, at 40,000 miles an hour Of the Galaxy we call the Milky Way. Our Galaxy itself contains 100 billion stars It's 100,000 light years side to side It bulges in the middle, 16,000 light years thick But out by us it's just 3,000 light years wide We're 30,000 light years from galactic central point, We go round every 200 million years And our Galaxy is only one of millions and billions In this amazing and expanding Universe As fast as it can go, at the speed of light you know, 12 million miles a minute, and that's the fastest speed there is. So remember when you're feeling very small and insecure How amazingly unlikely it is your birth And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space, Because there's bugger all down here on Earth. [/Eric Idle] |

I often have to remind myself that life is good. I usually think of the pictures that I have seen of children burned alive or blown up by some hideous diaper headed monster. I think of the horror that they went through before life that was taken from them. Their lives were stolen before they could even have the chance to fall in love, or grow up in the arms of their mothers, or even graduate from school. I have been blessed to have done all of these things and countless others. I have no complaints.
Thank you GOD for my life. |
