You are going to die one day...

I really appreciate all the responses and wisdom here.

The people here rock.

We can joke around but we can also learn from each other.

The responses to this thread show some very insightful people.

Hell the responses made me think and ponder beyond what I had originally posted.

Even the person who almost entirely plagiarized my thread.

All of you rock.

Please live your dreams. You deserve it. Do not put it off.

 

I agree we should just live life. My best friends are both between then getting married, buying houses and having babies.

They mock me, but I am not ready. I am out there making every second of my life count. I get drunk, I smoke dope, I jig to tunes early into the morning- but there's one difference between my shoddy existence and theirs

I enjoy my life. They do not.

 

Who says you have to "settle down" to have a life? I mean, 2.5 kids, a house with a picket fence, and a job at the office do not a happy life make for everyone.

Fucking do what makes you happy. People shouldn't worry about what you're doing with your life as long as it isn't hurting them.

 

I quit my real job two years ago, and I'm never going to settle for anything I don't love again. The worlds full of opportunity and I welcome it with open arms.

 

I quit my job four months ago, and I have vowed never to take a job just 'because it is a job', ever again!

We don't have long here, so make the most out of it. Always do what makes you happy, because otherwise it is only you who will lose out.

 

Like the thread but worried about the xoxoxoxox sarcasm at the end

Cheers!

 

Actually the xoxoxoxox sarcasm at the end was becase I remember you did a thread about it.

The xoxoxoxox bit at the end was not mean to mean anything, people read into it what they want to see.

To me it is love and kisses.

It meant I was sincere in what I was saying. I also hope to god someone saw this thread and decided to take steps to make real change in the now.

Also I was incredibly high on sensational weed.

Yet I always like to throw mixed messages into to my posts.

So the xoxoxoxox was meant only for one person and she knows who she is, don't you baby.

Shhh don't tell no one and pm me.

 

Couldn't it be seen the opposite. I'll take any job because life is great, fuck it, I'm making money to have fun?

I'm just trying to think of reasons for my trying to get a job now.

 

When life gives you lemons, just say 'Fuck the lemons,' and bail.

 

i have a corny joke about dying the next day here it is:

husband goes to the doctor and tell him he is going to die in one day

husband goes home and tells wife about whats goin to happen and ask what he wants on last night alive

"honey seeing how im going to die tomorrow i just want to make love to you"

wife says sure honey anything for you, so they get it on and he says thank you

he asks again " baby im going to die tomorrow can we please do it again"

she agrees seeing as she will never see him again

30 minutes later after being done with the last session he asks again and tells her he just cant get enough seeing as whats going to happen to him

they do it one more time

another 30 minutes late he ask " honey just one more time please for me"

she rolls over and says "stop it already would ya, i have to get up in the morning, you dont!!!!!"

hahahahahahahaha funny wasnt it

 

My own words were reminded to me.

It was Friday night in Guatemala City about 9 at night.

The people I had hired to transport and protect me made a logistical error.

I almost payed the price for that error.

It really does not matter what what happened, it is not relevant to this thread.

What does matter was in an instant if I had not reacted fast my body would have been shattered and splattered.

It would have been "game over babe".

It happened in an instant and life is like that.

It is so nice to be home.

Vacation was nice.

The jungle monkeys welcomed the rain. Things have started blooming on the farm. The colors are about to explode all around me.

Beats being shattered and splattered on the streets of Guatemala City.

 

Trouble is everyone ends up getting bored with everything anyway.

To change parts of your life just means you get bored of the changes quicker

 

More people would think like this if more people had experiences like this. Myself, I've had three brushes with death since I was a child. I fuckin appreciate life. Pampered people who have never known what it feels like to honestly fear for your life either while it's happening or after the fact don't fuckin appreciate it, and I get so sick of their whining about how awful their lives are. They don't get it. They just don't get it. Get on the right goddamn path to change it NOW because you only get one ride.
I know this got emotional, but fuck it, this IS life or death.

 

Hells yeah I couldn't agree more with most everything that has been said in this thread! People gotta learn to let go... when you let things fall apart the things you truly desire can come together... so many people just want to play it safe, thinking "my dreams are not possible" at least a 9-5 sounds achievable right? why did I never accomplish what I wanted in life? oh wait, I didn't try I gave up and settled, it's too late for me to live, right? so many people live dead... don't realize only when you throw everything in the face of death and say "come get me" can you truly live...

so many people have too much money invested in shit they own and don't see it owns them... "I gotta stay alive to sustain this bullshit" hahahah

 

There are always personal triggers in life that will cause a person to step back and re-evaluate what is really important to them and what really does matter. I think that for each person in life there will be a point when they make personal choices and if they are alright with where they are then, that is where they should be.

Unknown American, I am glad that you were on the right side of where you should be which means that you are here now.

This has been a thread that has been very beneficial and interesting, I enjoyed reading everyones thoughts.

 

I agree. It's nice to know there are people out there that know what's really important.

 

If I died this very second, I know I'd be leaving the world in a positive light. I'm grateful for it ALL, and would leave with no regrets.

Meanwhile, since I woke up still breathing this morning, I'm going to extract the maximum love and life from the day today!

 

Why the judgmental attitude?

I thought you said it was your life that came into danger.

And to Unknown American, I'm glad you made it out swell.

 

I don't think I have been bored in years. If I get bored I just go out and create a lot of chaos in my life. That is real easy.

Look if you are happy, that is all that matters. If you are bored, learn something.

But that is just me. If I am learning, I am alive.

 

Sure you have, do you get as excited about Xmas morning now like you did when you were 5? Or getting as excited about an upcoming birthday.

As nervous now as the first day on your first job after you left high school?

Are you sure you are happy? How do you know you are happy? Compared to who? Are you happier than Hugh Hefner? Is Hugh Hefner happy? He might of gotten bored of plastic bimbos years ago, he might be bitter and angry he is a prisoner of his own ego and brand name, he might dream of being a truck driver free on the highway, no concern about people wanting stuff from him all the time not many responsibilities. Is Hugh Hefner happier than the guy that volunteers at a soup kitchen. Does the guy that volunteer at a soup kitchen wonder how it would be like to be homeless, not having to slave at a 9 to 5 er, not worrying about mortgage payments?

What happens when you get bored of learning?


You are full of shit, I am full of shit, none of us know. We all say a whole lot of shit becuase we think we are supposed to, or its what people expect, or we dont want to admit we have no friggin clue.

If you are happy, then why do you have to reaffirm that to everyone?, why does this thread even exist.

Isnt the truth: This thread exists becuase you are not happy


Maybe you are not even alive, maybe you got hit by a truck 3 years ago and everything you think happened since then happened in the nanosecond between faceplant and coronary collapse
