I feel good.
« on: August 27, 2013, 08:28:45 PM »
I was scouring the internet and I found a thread on another forum where I posted my life situation. I was younger, more naive, in a heap of financial trouble, lived in a terrible area, and the only thing keeping me from committing suicide was my fear of death.

Fast-forward eight years.

I didn't finish college. I don't have a six figure income, drive a nice car, or own a big, beautiful house. I do make enough to pay the bills, however, with some money left over for fun. I've overcome family loss, car loss, job loss, girlfriend loss, and many other types of loss. At the moment, I have a stable job, good friends, I live with my best friend, and shit ain't bad.

Sure I'm not on top. But I'm not on the bottom, and it feels good.

I for one am glad you decided to hang in there.

Good to hear. Life is worth living and I'm glad you 'feel good'. Loss inevitably happens to us all in multiple forms and completely unscheduled. It's how we respond to that loss and it sounds as if you've rolled with the punches....

I may be mistaken, but I'm pretty sure I recall a thread you made asking 'what the point' was when you were out of money with a busted car etc etc. Someone said that it all about the feeling you got when you overcame all of that, and here you are.

So if that was you, fuck yeah. If it wasn't, fuck yeah.
