You’ve got some very sound wisdom, Doc.

I do disagree with you on the third paragraph though .. Being form Texas it’s only right that I support the death penalty .. In seriousness though, it’s more preventative and cost-effective. And although Ghandi said something like ‘if we all take an eye for an eye, we’ll all end up blind’, I’m still pro. BUT when you say that suicide if the easy way out and that it’s much more difficult to live thru the hardship .. I know you’re not discriminating against what religion the person may have, but i think you are assuming SOME religion (or spirituality at the least) .. for someone who believes that its just ashes to ashes after death, theres no apparent “weakness” in taking ones life (as is the case in say Catholicism). That person may be somewhat selfish since he/she may not consider the effects that he/she may have one others that care about him/her, but that’s something (and usually the key things that holds many back from going thru with suicide) that the self-killer has to weigh for him-/her-self.
Correct me if I’m wrong on any of what I just spewed out above.

All in all, I’d say I feel very slightly sorry for the “life sucks” people .. But not so much .. And not the least bit annoyed.

Yes, I do agree having a good relationship does count for happiness if you meet the right person that you know you could share your most darkest secrets and stories with you will be happier since you go a chance to let out your sorrow and your anger and holding nothing back.

1.) Self Betterment and growing spiritually, emotionally, etc..
2.) Helping others to do so…

So yes, even if i dont know the person, I do give them a few words of wisdom and know from that point my duty is done.

I mean Rishi, or Fyfy..you two seem to be in serious relationships. Right now its one of the most important things in your lives. However God forbid that the situation arises where you break up do you think you will have your head on straight afterwards? I’m sure you will be devastated! And even if it is for a millisecond you will be depressed….

Stuff happens. Like you said what defines us is how we deal with it. However as humans being full of error is what we are good at! (Sadly) so just don’t be hesitant in giving someone advice if you see them “sad” or saying “life sucks”

@Rishi: I view death as a different aspect than many people. After all I did loose many close friends in my life. What I learn from death is that death make life more beautiful ad precious. My motto is death made life worth living. If we never die nothing we do seem vaulable. We will never take pictures or enjoy our family.

What I think is that when people set their goal so high and there always wanting more is what cause life to suck for them. Once you got a great job, you want a big house, you want a fancy car, a beautiful spouse, and on and on. Men are never satified they always wanting more. It is that way of thinking is what make man complain. I think people who complain should spend a day in third world country is they will truly see who blessed they are. I seen it and all I have to said is thank God I wa sborn in America.

One more thing Rishi people also complain because of jealousy. Some people are so jealous of other people fortunate that they constantly complaining that they are not that lucky. That should be your new topic JEALOUSY and all they trouble it bring.
