I used to be pretty miserable until I took the attitude of not worrying about things I can't change. It drives my wife nuts when she's upset and I'm like "Oh well..." But I still have my bad days, too

Well, I can't say I haven't had my moments of self-inflicted Bree-laced ignorance, either. yeah it does tend to piss people off when you don't take things so seriously... especially when you're known for being "moral" and "responsible"...*sighs*

I just be myself...If people don't like it they can leave. I can be blunt but the people I AM friends with like me because of it.

I used to feel that way as well. I let the stresses of everyday life wear me down...not enough money, crappy job, can't spend enough time with the kids, much less feed them. And then I woke up one morning and realized that I could continue to bitch about my crappy life, or embrace it and own it. So, yeah, I'm still dirt poor, can barely feed my kids, but I love my job and I make sure that spending time with them comes first. And I remember how fun I was at 12, how much wonder there was in the world and I try to live my life that way. I try not to be bitter and jaded (I fail at that quite a bit ), but at least I try.

Oh, and a couple years of therapy and medication helped too

Oh, don't get me wrong... I still worry about things... But I rarely let them get me to the point that I can't joke about them

I dunno if I can really call myself jaded, but as most of you already know (also referring to the readers, not just people replying) I'm pretty opinionated and tend to be pretty vocal. I may not be as blunt about it as Beckers, but it isn't really all that different. I just like to use tact in situations.

I don't know if I'll ever be in the same situation as Ziola who has kids, but when that time comes, I hope to be able to embrace that, too.

I wish I had your resilience, 'mute. I tend to take things on the more serious side since that's how people seem to take me when I start to jabber on.. Well, mostly. It's kinda refreshing knowing that some people can relate.

Kage, you seem like you need a hug today. So I'm sending you a big hug and kiss and homemade cookies with lots of love. I know its not as good as the real thing, but I hope you can feel the sentiment.

whew...was expecting to see everyone in their teens but there's some oldies (no offence) like me in here too...i feel better about myself...lol

32 here

Yeah, we're taking over this thread for the time being, Mr. Graves...

Thanks for the sentiment, Ziola.

It's all about knowing where to bury the bodies, yuki

You sure you aren't really related to Cassie?

Hmmm, Pisces as well. March 5th.

Bury the bodies!?! Nah, we just feed 'em to the animals here.

I have been told my birthday is right on the cusp of Aquarius/Pisces....and that every once in awhile I am a Pisces....I don't know that kind of stuff though xD...hell I can never remember if it is astronomy or astrology...I think its astrology....
