  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

What's on your mind?

I feel so dead inside. Things that should bother me do not really bother me anymore. I don't feel like I have much of a capacity to care for others anymore. I just want the world to hurry up so I can be one in the long line of dead human beings. It's amazing in 100 years we won't matter anymore.

Speak for yourself. In 100 years there will be movies made about me, kids will study me in school, and there will probably be statues of me in parks all around the country.

Seriously, why so glum, chum?

If you realistically want that, you better be prepared to do some evil things. Lol.

Why so glum? I don't know, I don't feel like I'm going anywhere in life. And not sure how much longer I can take it.

What makes you think I haven't already. It will all come out in my memoirs.

When I was young, back when the Earth was new, I felt that way. I didn't really know what I wanted, what I wanted to do, or what I wanted out of life. So, I decided to list all of my positive traits and negative traits. I was brutally honest about it, too. Kind of a life assessment. It was then that I formulated a plan, making sure to make it flexible. You may want to consider doing something like that.

I felt that way as well, til I realized. I was basing "where I was in the world" by comparing myself to the world.

When you realize that life ISN'T about where you are but where you end up..... its so much easier. There is only one you, one me.... so comparing myself to someone else is like comparing an apple to an orange. Even under similar circumstances...... 2 different people, two different paths.

If you are unhappy in life as a whole. It means you aren't where you should be and its time to shake things up and do something different. Life will NEVER be a case of always happy, but if you are restless..... it means its time to do something about it by doing something else. Do the same thing all the time, you will get the same results.

Being content is NOT a formula for progress.

That's why I suggested his taking stock of himself. He has different talents, abilities, ways of looking at life. His conclusions would be totally different than my own, because he is a different person. But, by doing what I did, I also exposed my weaknesses and knew what areas to work on.

I know, I don't disagree with that..... but usually peoples first mistake is by comparing their life to someone elses. Understanding oneself as you suggested is never a bad thing. I think honestly to be happy with oneself, both things must be realized.

Well, Squeaky is muh awesome friend so it makes sense we have some commonalities. :D
I haven't heard from her in so long. I do still wish she'd come around here every now and then and say hullo. :(

There was a time when I went through a phase where I felt similarly. I am sorry you are feeling that way. :( :hug:

I like these - but I've never had much luck wearing sandals without some kind of backing strap - do I take a risk? They do have a toe post.

Those are nice looking sandals! :ok:
