    Why do bad things happen?

    Why do bullies win?

    Why are children hurt?

    Why do bad things happen to us?


    Are we being punished?


    How many times can I say I'm sorry? Have I done something wrong?


    If only I knew.

    Is there ever going to be a happy ending?


    Is death the happy ending?

    Sometimes I think god has a really sick, twisted sense of humor. And he's up there laughing his @ss off at me.

    Your girlfriend's silence might be her loudest scream.

    If you still have more dreams than regrets, congratulations. You haven't gotten old yet.

    Spend every moment like it's your last. Hug her, kiss her, hold her, like it's the last time that you ever will. Because it might be.

    Because humans seem to get a thrill out of putting others down. It seems to make them feel powerful.

    And why are we being punished? What did any of us here ever do? It seems like an unfair punishment.

    It's weird that I was once told a theory, that actually, we are all already dead, and we are on hell.

    I dunno why, but it seems the universal order of things is: Negative, Neutral, Positive.
    Just like for example, in math, some operations take precedence over others.
    It's so easy to get bad, but good is so hard. Sadness will come to you with no effort, happiness requires the most intense fighting to get.
    Maybe the people of this world made it this way, but it oddly feels like events that happen fall under this rule too.
    I would never say it's 'god' tho, because sadly enough, thats just to comfort the fear of death and enforce power and control, which is the biggest flaw of the human race, and one day technology will force us to accept that.

    I hear ya guys. Sometimes I think that earth is some kind of hell, but then things turn around. Like today, the owner called me to ask if I would be willing to take another position because she didn't want to lose me. Even if that doesn't happen, it made me feel like I was worth something.

    And I went to the Arboretum today and smelled the flowers and had conversations with squirrels and everything seemed to be right with the world again.

    Life is just so complicated.

    Don't you guys find yourself wondering why it all is? I mean even if it just popped into existence, what on earth is all this about. It's just so mind boggling. And to think we are a mere speck in the cosmos.

    There just has to be some reason for everything, right?

    These are thoughts that I have very often. They hurt my head because there is no conclusion. I try my dam hardest to see the best in everyone and every situation. It make me very sad to think of all the hurt and suffering that goes on in the world while my boyfriend and I tell each other what we would like for Christmas.

    These are things I think about all the time. But to me, I just think we WANT there to be a reason when it really doesn't seem like there is. As far as we know...things just exist because they exist. However, our brains like to think otherwise because we're programmed to look for reason, logic, and patterns in everything . However at the end of the day life, to me, is just a psychotic bizarre rollercoaster that has it's extreme ups and extreme downs. One could go crazy trying to make sense of it all. Enjoy the ride because one day the ride is going to stop and we have to get off.

    I so want to get off this ride. I just need a rest from this world. Just for a little while.


    But you know what?


    I have to keep smiling and keep going.

    You must. Life is always going to throw you a curve ball around almost every corner. But ya have to keep going pull strength from where ever you can and keep chugging along. Do not dwell on the negative things or the past. Live in the present, set goals, and work towards them. Take time out for yourself to relax. Do hobbies you enjoy. Such as photography. Life is hard for many of us, and easy for others. But it's relative and we just have to keep faith and positive that with each new day, is a chance to make a difference!

    You're right. I had a long talk with God today and he assures me that everything will be fine and to just rest. So I will.

    I honestly don't know, to be honest. I've asked myself the same question.

    Whenever I see people that are suffering, or bullied, I wonder what they did to deserve it. I also wonder what I did to deserve my bullying when I was younger? Even now, I get bullied, if I let my guard down, so I just don't trust people anymore.

    I think your thought is so meaningful because Some time We think about every part of life...Like who am I? where is god ? how peoples dont be happy? Etc....

    Everybody should think about that but not be confused..I also thought about the life & all..

    I think what's more useful for humankind is if spammers thought about their life and all and solved it by getting a different job. I think it will be useful for humankind in all mental factors.
