    if it wasn’t for
    the way she writes
    I would be lost
    and have no fight

    if it wasn’t for
    the way she listens
    I’d be half dead
    my heart not glisten

    if it wasn’t for
    the way she cares
    I’d give up now
    in total despair

    if it wasn’t for
    the way he smiles
    My day’d be less
    By far, by miles

    (dedicated to my loved ones)

    Working hard is not necessarily a virtue.

    That’s interesting because most of the people I meet would disagree with you .

    tiny Buddha
    and anita
    are not part
    of the bad twenty fifteen
    let’s make that clear
    you’ve helped this man
    like no one else can

    thanks for your input. Seems we share similar anxiety about getting old, disabled and dependant. Oh and our partner dying first. Yeah that one is a concern too. 🙂

    I still think it is hard to be authentic in an inauthentic world.
    Does hard work really pay off?
    Look at those people who slave at entry level jobs all their lives.
    Who make the entrepreneur rich.
    Ability to package yourself, promote yourself as a product to the world. That’s what will ensure financial security.
    You need imagination, courage and business savvy. And those of who lack that, are doomed to poordom.
    Ok enough of a rant for today 🙂

    When I examine my fear, I realize most of my fears are about things that already happened. I will be in a much better spot if I only fear what may or will happen. It cuts down on the load of fear.

    I’m sorry anita if this thread triggered your past fears. I certainly don’t want to add to your burden.

    Yes Anita morning tends to be quite optimistic for me too.

    This thread needs a poem
    And I am here
    To add my weight
    by drinking beer
    no need to dwell on past events
    that can’t be changed
    why not focus?
    on being less deranged?

    You did your best
    That is clear
    You don’t believe me
    Do you dear
    You decided not to make a wave
    So what
    At least you didn’t rave
    It did not become a major drama
    Surely good for your karma
    But now you want to obsess again
    about the bully
    Bad ass Ben
    He’s not worth even a second
    Of your valued and unique
    attention
    So come back to the present moment
    Listen to your precious heartbeat
    Honour the child
    who lives within
    He was hurt
    but now he’s healed.
    No need to ruminate
    anymore
    inner selves all vote
    “no more”

    Cant wait for this shit year to finish and start fresh next year

    I’ve got the same feeling. 2015 was a bad year for me too. Funny how we are ruled by calendars and time. I mean in effect I’m wasting the last 5 or 6 weeks until new years day.
    May we both find some clarity, focus and happiness in 2016! 🙂

    But she’s a troll anyway, is what I forgot to say.

    I no longer have a desire to deal with people

    Now, THAT, I can relate to.
    I haven’t experienced major clinical depression but I can understand the essence of what you say. To be honest though I didn’t experience it at your age. I’m 57 and have experienced it recently. Lack of motivation. What’s the point! Same old, same old..kind of feelings.
    Like I need to refresh. Look at life with new eyes. Get back the awe and wonder of a child. Too much cynicism.
    Well, hopefully you can snap out of it soon. Don’t be impatient might be my advice.

    Hypo Henry is his name
    aches and pains
    is his game
    He loves to moan
    He loves to groan
    about his latest
    malady

    He has a fascination
    for self-examination
    Likes to see
    “what’s wrong with me?
    is it cancer?
    or just a splinter?
    will I have a stroke?
    please tell me
    it’s no joke
    will I be disabled?
    or am I wrongly labelled?”

    What could be more alluring than a single handsome pastor?

    An old, washed-up, overweight, barely employable Aussie? 🙂

    Getting back to Glenda. One minute she’s threatening eternal damnation, next she wants our sympathy, empathy and advice.
    Glenda, you seem closer to God than us. Why don’t you ask him?

    What prompted this Anita? Hopefully not one of my immature posts? 🙂
    I might be accused of self-promotion and borderline spamming by starting so many threads.
    Hope I’m not annoying you anyway.
