    Remember the first time you tried to walk and you fell down and you got back up and tried again until you could do it with out falling
    Then had to learn how to run. And then skip. Jump rope
    I kinda take it for granted it was so long ago
    As I was writing this I had a flash back of trying to run. Trying to skip and keeping my balance life is somewhat like that know matterwhat it is we want or we want to take on it's a balance ots challenge.. then the next flash I had was
    Why did the chicken cross the road
    To get to the other
    side
    I think as a human race we are supposed to be smarter I think we took a wrong turn someplace think about when time first started to this day
    It's basically the same thing as when we are baby to this day we are only as smart as our parents set our foundation and then what we learned on our own what we've experienced so from the beginning of time to this day it's kind of like the same thing I know we were not put on this Earth to fight to have conflict to kill each other over nothing over dirt
    So all the people before us basically set our foundation on who were supposed to be and I think they were wrong I think it's bullshit
    I think this planet is special I think we are special and I think it's magical but somewhere we took a wrong turn
    And for me personally I want to understand why
    I don't want to follow
    I didn't get to grow up with a father so I didn't know him and I always wanted to know who I was who I was supposed to be 30 years later I found out who I didn't want to be
    We have all followed the path of the people before us and this is where it has got us look at us today something's wrong this is not who we are supposed to be

    I did not have children to bring them into this world to live in a fucked up Society we are supposed to leave this planet in better hands a better place for our children
    My reason for living is to do just that for my children for your children for everybody's children
    My reason for living is not about me it's about the people that come after me
    The reason I live is because I want to experience it I think we're more special than what we actually are I think there's a greater reason and everything that we do it's just like walking learning how to walk it's to go forward and to find ourselves I think there's a much bigger picture and I want to know what it is and I want to experience everything on the way but I can tell you this it wasn't to get to the point that we are all at today where there's so much ignorance in the world and so many people trying to kill each other for what reason

    hope for something tomorrow, that I add value to life for others.

    I recall getting notice from Dr. at age 30 that I may not be alive next month. that awoke me to want to live. at times, I didn't because of the hopelessness, pain, fear, doubt, frustration... negative emotions. Life just seems like a cycle of ups and downs. 80% of our problems are in our heads and hearts... the opportunities are there as well.

    What helps is change, finding something you enjoy and doing that, finding some new challenges opens new doors to life when it gets stale and boring. read the book by the dalai lama, take in some new thoughts.

    I just got married and our life together has lead to a lot of new for me, changed my whole life. It's good, it was hard at times, I needed a change. There's challenges that go with it. the challenge is what's fun... to overcome.

    you'd probably do well getting into community where there is support, helping others or being in a role where you are passing on what you've learned in life. helping children, pets, etc... We are social beings, you probably moreso than others assuming your personality. Sitting around focusing on our problems and what we don't have leaves anyone stuck in a hole and hopeless. focusing on helping others feels good and can pay the bills, while nurturing your inner self as well. You need to find what really motivates you inside.

    When you start doing the right things for your soul, you'll feel good, energy, and you want to live to have more of that.

    It's striking to think of people whose bodies don't work, Stephen Hawking as example.. but he stuck it out and used his brain. We need to be thankful for what we have, practice gratitude every day... these are good things that feed us inside.

    Belief in an afterlife keeps me going as I see no purpose for life without one. And this is probably why there are over 800,000 suicides a year.
    In 2020, 45,979 Americans died by suicide.

    Suicide is the 12th leading cause of death in the U. S.

    Every day, approximately 125 Americans die by suicide.

    There is one suicide death in the US every 11.5 minutes.

    Suicide is the 3rd leading cause of death for 15 to 24 year old Americans.
    The highest suicide rates (per 100,000) in the US are among white males (25.4), followed by Native American/Alaska Natives (14.6), and Black males (12.6).

    There is one suicide death for every estimated 25 suicide attempts.

    There are approximately 1,149,475 annual attempts in the U. S. (using 25:1 ratio) or one attempt every 27.5 seconds

    All my life I was been told that I can’t do anything, I’m worthless. However, something that made me going was that I want to prove those people wrong. I wanted to prove I can be more and also wanted to prove some others that girls can also do sports. Every single time in PE, whenever there are gender-combined sports, girls always get picked last. I was so pissed off when I saw that, so what I did was to prove that girls can also be better athletes than men. I was also told that girls should rest and boys should work. Honestly, that made me fed up. I was about to explode. Just always, genders never get the same treatment.

    For me, I’m enduring this “hell hole or devil’s playground” with a knowledge the Spirit and condition of the world is temporary. I am not attached to the things of this world. “I’m passing through”, as they say, knowing my trials and troubles are temporary and part of my Sanctification.

    Hope is defined as Eternality for all people. -My eternality will reside where man, woman, and world are anew. Where lion 🐅 lays down with the lamb 🐑. Where my soul, mind, spirituality, and body are restored perfect as a Son of God.
    -Others’ eternality may not be so pleasant depending upon whether one is at enmity with God or In Christ Jesus. I don’t particularly care for my sinful nature and the Depravity rabid through man. Man-man interactions (Putin-Ukraine), however, this world 🌎 🌍 🌏 is one big opportunity for this pilgrim. All my eggs 🥚 🐣 are not in the Ruler (Satan) of this World’s basket 🧺.

    We all come to a point in life where we ask ourselves, "What is the point?" It seems like everything we do is for a purpose: to get a job so we can make money, to make money so we can buy things, to buy things so we can be happy. But at some point, we realize that chasing after happiness is a fruitless endeavor. So then, what is the point?

    Some people might say that the point is to make the world a better place. But what does that mean, exactly? It can mean a lot of different things to different people. To some, it might mean volunteering at a homeless shelter or working to end world hunger. To others, it might mean simply being kind and compassionate to the people around them.

    Others might say that the point is to find meaning in life. But what does that mean, exactly? Again, it can mean a lot of different things to different people.

    A few things.
    I want to achieve my goals. I want to be a teacher one day. I want to move. I want to be wholly self sufficient etc.
    I'm also driven by anger and a desire to carry the torches of those I've lost for as long as I can.

    For me it´s curiosity. Every day is new and there are some times days where I walk into people or shops I´ve never seen or met still I thought I knew these places like the inside of my pocket.
    ´For me it´s those small things that keep me going though being single I have many people around me that make wanna know more and going deeper every day.

    My daughter and my husband keeps me going. Also my mom and my siblings.
    If it wasn’t for my family, I wouldn’t care to keep living. I don’t have a dream job and even if I did it’s not like I have the motivation to work towards it. I have no hobbies, or anything exciting about my life. I think life is pointless and stressful and I don’t care for it.

    At the moment, not a lot, but I promised myself I would at least get through this year continuing to work on myself, if it gets me what I'm looking for, then I'll have a reason to keep going, if it doesn't then it's time to call it a day.

      @Blonde401 who told you that nobody cares about you? There might be people whom you don't know but care about you...

      Life won't remain the same, no matter how much long it gets but in the end something will happen and you will forget about these dark days that you're passing in...

      Never lose hope, you said that no one cares about you, start with me, i care about you, i know that i'm a random stranger and living far away but i exist and you might ask why would i care about you, well i care about you because you're a human being and you're a life and have a soul given to you from god, i cannot see you sad and depressed and act as if there nothing!

      I want you to smile and have hope and you can always talk to me when you need to vent or get things off you're chest, making you happy is important to me because i feel that i'm doing something good in the world and show you that it's not true that nobody cares about you 😊

      We all have problems and struggles and we all think about life sometimes and why we are even born if our lives are just painful but we must fight and hope that the future will bring us better days...

      Stay safe and take care...
