There is only ONE constant in life. Everything else in life is a variable. That only constant is that we ALL die. All religionists liars can say whatever they want, but they've all been proved wrong. We ALL die. Fact.
Taxes are a variable. Relationships are a variable. Health and happiness are both variables. DEATH is a constant and it always happens.
Given that FACT, the question that remains for all of us is this: "what shall we choose to do in life before death wipes us out and wipes out everything we thought we were, we were, or we wanted to become?" There are virtually unlimited choices for us in this short shift we call Life.
You are never EVER alone. If you don't have friends or family, you have yourself. And nobody, no human being on this earth knows you like you do. People come, people go. Opportunities present themselves, then leave as quickly as they came. But one thing you can bet your life on, is you.
Hallelujah, sister. Preach it, tell it out. You've found a truth of the universe.
You know what's really sad, Amanda? That so very many people don't know what you know; and don't even know that they don't know. Have no idea what you're talking about. Which is why I say...
bay64me - We ALL go through that at one point in our lives or another. Thing is, ya gotta stick it out, and in time things DO look up. Live is like a huge wheel, always going around. Some of the cycles are not-so-good, but never forget, it's a cycle, and is bound to come back up again, sooner or later - even if you have to give that wheel a shove. *hugs*
Blueblades - Thanks for sharing. Life isn't always good though, but you have to take the bitter with the sweet.
Mac - Thanks for making me feel all warm and fuzzy yet again.
SPAZnik - Ditto goes for you.
animal - Yes, very true. Simple fact is, we don't know what is after. We can speculate, but in the end, none of us REALLY know.
Aztec - Yup, ur right. Sticking it out is a great option, took me a few years to get out of my rut, but god damn it, you have to dig and claw your way out sometimes. *hugs*
Farkel - I have nothing to add, so beautifully said. *big ass hug*
COMF - Are ya bein' sarcastic...
