I'd like to tell anyone who is struggling to find a reason to carry on; Think of a memory. Think of a time in your life when you were truly happy, no matter how how big or small that moment was, dwell on it. Now think of a time in your life when things were worse than they are for you now, a time when you thought there was nary a chance to come through it in one piece. let it pass through your mind for a moment. Think back to people you have loved, who have loved you in return, regardless of where they are now, take a moment to analyze your triumphs and your failures. understand that no matter what happens in life, you have to keep the goodness from your past held strong in your heart, and carry that joy with you in the darkest of shadows, You need to look back on the events in your life that just about broke you in two, and draw strength from that. You are still here, You're still fighting, even if you don't want to, even if you feel like you cant. embrace that fighting spirit. and turn your pain into motivation, channel all that emotion into a fuel for your will. and keep in mind. there have been times in your life where you knew joy, and those days will return, especially if you FIGHT for them. life doesn't get easier. I wish I could say that it does, but that would be a lie. The difference lies with you. You get better at handling the hardship, and eventually, events that almost broke you will seem like no big deal, so long as you keep striving to do better. the last thing i'd like to say; You can only rely on yourself at the end of the day. Learn to love yourself, accept your flaws, and change the things that are in your power to change. You have to accept yourself for who you are, because you cant break up with, nor cut ties with yourself. you have to accept every mistake and shortcoming and love yourself unconditionally. on top of that, you most likely have people that love you, that need you in this world, and would never be the same without you. You can make it through this, even if you are at your lowest, for if that's the case, the only way to go is up.
I wanted to take a minute to explain myself and apologize

@Lindsey First, a welcome. And now, a very heart-felt WELCOME BACK! Your kindness is endearing, and appreciated, and to you my door will always open. Here's to new experiences, and better days, ahead! To be continued...

@Scottish Ass kissing is definitely a great way to achieve happiness for most people, I'm glad we can finally agree on something,
-
@Lindsey I am pretty new here and didn’t see ur other post but just wanted to say that I can totally relate and understand ur frustration. I find myself so desensitized to it which is honestly a pretty sad commentary on how often it happens.
-
@Scottish For sure. 😂
-
@m-y-s-t-e-r-y your world view must be pretty bleak if you consider relating to people, liking them and expressing it to be ass kissing. I have plenty of cynicism of my own. I try not to let it colour all of my thoughts. I suspect you enjoy it, we'll just need to differ. There's loads of good people on here, you'll find some to connect with and relate to. I think you and i are poles apart however. I'm sure you're equally as dissapointed as i am 😊

@Lindsey
hey, i'm glad to see that you've decided to give this site another chance. we need good people like you around here :) -
@sarah_the_magpie Hey Sarah I appreciate that, I'm grateful for your words. IDK how good I am, but thanks for having me.
-
@Lindsey DITO I know where you are coming from, where you are going, what you want on here. What can I say but what you and just about all the decent people have already said just- Been there, done that, got the T-shirt it's so old now using it as a rag Just want to say really really glad you will stick it out longer.
-
@Ladydoall30 You know I have mixed emotions about that if im being honest, on one side of the coin, its comforting to know I'm not the only one, but on the other side of the same coin, it saddens me to think how many wonderful people have been subjected to that kinda stuff. But Thanks Lady, I'm glad im sticking it out too.

@Lindsey "Im 32 years old getting upset about internet people. Like Im better than that"
Obligatory repost, btw did anyone bring up women's rights yet?
Why ride this topic to the ground? Like I said, I get your point and we've basically already established men are expected to be obnoxious, but then also dont be shocked when theres a reaction to it. Why point out and complain about someone complaining? You're doing the same thing you're acusing her of.

@Littlelion12 i think it's how he gets his thrills. He's a little ray of sunshine isn't he Mrs 😁
-
I am adding all you decent ppl 💋💋
-
@Littlelion12 This isn't about her anymore, this is about our man of virtue Sir Scottish. But its okay we're friends now!
-
@m-y-s-t-e-r-y oh sorry i never got the memo that i was to remain silent while you held forth. I'm beginning to think you're just a silly troll. However feel free to joust, i am after all a knight in shining armour as you so condescendingly put it 😊
