This is just a exerpt from an e-mail i sent a friend recently. Names and situations have been changed to protect identities
I don't get it! its like everyone i talk to is such a downer misery pile these days! it bothers me! Everyone complains about how they have it so bad and how their life sucks and how it'll never get better. THEN CHANGE IT!
It's pissing me off cause all they do is complain and bitch about how they've gotten a raw deal, and every time I tell them "just change it" they say "i can't."
Theres NOTHING stopping them!
1 person was complaining about now that schools in she can't see her boyfriend as much. So I told her "just see him when you can" and she was like "thats never! I might as well break up with him!"
Another was complaining about how their life is going too fast and everythings too hectic for him. I told him "take some time and re-calibrate yourself" he was like "you don't get it! if i slow down i'm gonna crash!"
I don't know what I don't "get" about all this but it just sickens me that people only complain about how their lives suck and how nothing can change and how they're just gonna complain about it until it gets better and NONE of them believe me when i say "do something about it!"
And honestly, I can't sympathize with them. I know I used to be just like that! Always complaining about how I got a raw deal and shit, and it took growing up and straightening myself out to realize "hey, if i want things to be better, I have to put myself out there and make them better" And ever since I've started doing that I've been much happier!
Sure I'm not living on easy street with all the glamour and glitz and crap, but at least I'm happier with myself! And everytime something comes a long i want to change. I change it!
