I was recently having a discussion with a friend of mine, and it's pissed me off.
People need to grow up. We all know life sucks, but you can't only have the shit things on your mind. If you keep letting all those little wrongs you do get to you, then your life will spiral down into a pit of misery and you wont have anyone else to blame but yourself. If you have a loose bolt, tighten it up. After Alex had me be rid of Ed and Dan, I thought the children in my life were gone. But here again I have a "I can't afford to mess up". If you couldn't afford to mess up, you'd be losing your home, family, children and friends. If you're use to your life being shit, put a fucking smile on your face because it's not anymore.
Personally, I had to do this myself. I know it's hard to look at the good side when you naturally see the bad, but you're not going to get anywhere unless you do. I was childish when I was crying and whining over being lonely. I kept saying "I want, I want" when I was getting way more then I needed already, and cause of that, I was ripping my world apart. If you can't see the good, then you need to get up, go for a walk, and think about what you have to come home to. If you have a home, friends, children or even a partner, then you have something to smile about. If you can turn around and have a door that leads to your house full of belongings, you have something in your life.
To me, love is the most important thing. My beloved may live miles away, but we still love each other. Even though we're not together as we speak, and we have things going on in our lives, our hearts still belong to the other. That is enough to put a smile on my face and look forward to the day she'll be in my arms. There is no point in crying over the fact that she's busy and I'm not. There is no reason for me to be upset that I don't get to see her as soon as she walks through the door. Cause even though I'm not the first thing she sees, just like I do for her, I never left her side.
Now if someone as emotionally un-stable as me, can bring myself to see that, than anyone can.
Everything may be falling apart around you, but there is always something there to hold you up.
There is always a reason to keep going. And if you have someone to talk to about it, you have something to smile about.
