life help: Is it just me or what? - Help.com

Is it just me or what?

Have you ever noticed that no matter the path, or the side roads you take, or how many times you get turned around in life, you always end up progressing somehow? I mean seriously think about this. Its almost like everything in our lives from the way we walk, talk, communicate, and deal with problems are direct reflections of something we have learned from. I know this sounds like monotany but think about it. our pasts make us stronger, smarter, more likely to watch our step. Duck when we get to that point in the forest where we were knocked off our horses the first time. Everything is such a stepping stone, and no im not a philosopher, just a thinker and a writer. See im 27 years old and i am far from where i want to be in life, but i am also at that point where everything is starting to make perfect sense but in a very metaphoical way ya know. its like you have to be clever to pick up on somethings you are shown to understand its true meaning. When where you end up is the out come of things you can see clearly were supposed to happen to make where you are today possible, is amazing. Its not everyday we can sit back and have the confidence to say, you know… I know im where im supposed to be reguardless of what your current status is, rich, poor, abused, pampered, etc. That takes some thought and some foresight and some strength. I just want to thank everyone for bringing this out of me tonight.

you know to make that entry shorter i could have said “everything happens for a reason.” but i had to go all out on a rant and repeat myself a hundred times as i always do. well at least someone else sees it the same way.

I wouldn’t say that everything happens for a reason, looking at all of the starving people in Africa, but we as human beings remember a lot more than we think.

well in a sense it is happening for a reason. I mean it isn’t a good thing but people who think they have it bad can use that as a positive way of looking at their situation. i mean its very sad, but really there is nothing we can do to stop it. It is happening, just like war, hate crimes, brutal assaults on innocent women, children being molested, abducted, sold as slaves. there are tons of things that we as people of this country turn our minds from but they exist and there is little we can do but put our hands together and look up. ya know. this is going to upset me.

We don’t all deserve what we get. And we don’t all get what we deserve. That is the sad truth of the world.

So the starving kids in Africa deserved what they got? How is it fair in any way to punish someone for what they did in a past life in their next life, when they may be completely innocent? I used to believe this, but then I looked at myself.

murder and death has been around since the beginning of time. It is perpetual. That will never change, as long as we breath, there will be predators out there. Im not trying to preach here, but this is a very touchy subject with me. It really strikes a chord to think about all the people who are murdered for no reason, or murdered in general, child molestation cases at your local churches, kids being abducted from recess, I mean just a few years ago there was a case on msn news of a man who sexually assulted a 6 month old baby, it died from internal damage i mean its disgusting, but guess what, did we do anything to crack down on stuff like that, no.

reguardless of opinions. it is happening, debating the reasoning or relavance of the situation is pointless.
