do you belive life is what you make it?

You could have used the word "misery" there, champ.

Yeah, but I didn't really want to . See miserableness caught your attention... didn't it?

I hate people who sit there and whine and bitch about their life, but do nothing to change it. "Oh poor me, pity me, I need help". What a bunch of losers. If you are unhappy with your job, bf/gf, life, etc.. then change it. Dont sit there and expect everyone to feel sorry for you. Now dont get me wrong, there are some people who have had a very hard life and things just never seem to work out for them. But then you have the people who are on welfare, have six kids to five different deadbeat dads, "have" to work at least twenty hours a week to keep the welfare, and then complain about how tired, and broke they are. To those people I say: quit sleeping around, go to school, better yourself. If not for them then at least do it for the kids. I have total respect for someone I see that is trying so hard for their families, it is the other 50% of the welfare whores that I cannot tolerate. My b/f and I work our ass off to better ourselves and our family.

So yes, I believe that you make your own path in life. If you want it go and get it. If you are too damn lazy to do so then "get out of the gene pool".

Yes it is what you make it, the decisions you make, the effort you put forth and your commitment to success.

This is all under the assumption that if everybody works hard at it, everybody can be happy. This is not true. we live in a competition, both professionally and socially. We can't all be winners.

A girl I work with has two children 4 and 2. Met the father at 15 got pregnant, he was abusive so she left, he comes back she gets pregnant again, she kicks him out again. He comes back and stays for awhile, doesnt want to be a dad and he leaves. He now comes around and tries to "play daddy" because he wants her back. So she sleeps with him, he leaves and comes around again when he wants a piece. She has just recently found out that he got her neighbor pregnant, but yet continues to sleep with him.

She is on welfare, works 10 hours a week, complains she is tired, leaves work early continuously, and then complains she isnt getting enough hours. She talks of leaving to move with him. (now that is a smart move). She has no plans of going back to school for her GED, or onto college, she has plans to be with this guy as she puts it " until i get sick of him, and he goes until the next time i feel like I need him". Then she expects you to feel sorry for her? Sorry not happening.

No we cannot all be winners, but when you continuosly put yourself in a position like that and do nothing to better yourself or your kids then I feel nothing but disgust for you. When a person outright does not want to better themselves, then why we feel sorry for them?

But hey, that is just my opinion.

hanselthecaretaker - i agree with you on what you say about getting tired of different majors. however, if you've changed majors 3, 4, 5 times and havn't found anything you like, maybe it's time to take a break and figure out what you want to do in life.

no, we can't all be winners. no matter how hard you work at it, it might not just be your day. however, as we all know, put some effort into school and your job and you've got a better chance of being "comfortable" as you go through life. granted, everyone has their own idea of what being comfortable is, so i'll put it the easiest way - not having to barely scrape by from week to week and month to month.

big bad buff - i'm 5'6" and it's not too bad

and LucidBlue - i'm in miserableness because your avatar picture cuts off just a little bit too high. it needs to go lower.

shorty, that's what you get for using juice before your growth plates fully formed

true, but conversely, succumbing to fatalism is inherently admitting an outright defeat. relying solely on chance of materializing of the better outcomes is not at all an optimal course. if you have a conception of valuable and meaningful life, it's only logical that you're the one who will have to put effort to attain it.

it seems like the badstuff comes out of no where but for anything good you have to work your ss off.
