I think this is more of a good truth -- we need to be thankful for what we've got.

So true. An attitude of gratitude has got me through many tough days.

Living on minimum wage in the western world means you live better than the most powerful king not that long ago. Plumbing, refrigerators, access to 40,000 food products (often 24hrs a day) near you, dentistry, anaesthesia/modern medicine, a/c, washing machines, transit, heating not done by burning anything, electric lights, awareness of hygene and germs, access to information etc etc etc etc.

When I was at my lowest, my minister had a sermon and gave us "Gratitude Journals". Every day, for a month, I listed 10 things I was grateful for. It was mostly small stuff... my kitty's purr...a smile from a stranger... the scent of homemade soup that smelled like my momma's hug. All those little things added up to an attitude of gratitude.... and saved my life.

And the reason for that is, in part, the same reason we dream of living like others: because we can usually only see the good parts of other people's lives, and assume they're perfect, or that their problems are as bad as ours.

I'm sorry about your cancer, and wish you all the best. I'm guessing there probably are people who'd take serious illness and possible reduced life expectancy over their current circumstances though. For example, a pre-pubescent girl being used as a sex slave and kept in a dungeon. Some of our wildest nightmares are the reality of others

    Yeah, but they also make you push yourself to better things. This is going to be cheesy, but when you expect, you actually try. Sure, you may not suffer if you don't expect anything, but you won't get anywhere. Expectations may hurt when you don't make them, but you'll remember that when you try again. Expectations push you forward, even if pain is involved. It's worth it.

    I sometimes wish I had more friends. I only have one, my husband. It is so sad I don't know how to make friends. It is so difficult for me as I am not much of a speaker and more of an introvert and it is hard to find someone who will be like me or be able to tolerate me. I only have colleagues, neighbors that I talk to from time to time. But no one I can call a friend. This makes me feel lonely at times, not all the times as I enjoy to be alone most of the time. But there are days when I wish to have a girlfriend that I can talk to, and share girl staff with. The last time I had friends was 10 years ago, I was not too shy as a kid, was a little bit much not too much. Things changed when I went to high school, the introvert in me came out, I don't know why.

    You won't miss high school as you're experiencing it now, you'll miss the lost opportunity you could have had to enjoy it by being friends with better people, getting involved in what the school offers, and learning the basics that will come up again in real life allowing you to participate in conversations. I hated high school but i didn't do anything to try to make it better. A regret.

    Rafaella Bueno

    8 years ago Created by potrace 1.15, written by Peter Selinger 2001-2017

    It doesn't. Because bad things and bad moods happen all the time, even if you're successful. You just can't be happy all the time. Maybe success for you is forming a family. That doesn't mean you won't be pissed at them or at yourself at times and won't even occasionally wish you weren't married or didn't have a kid. Maybe you have your dream job... but there will be days when you'll hate it for one reason or another. And your definition of happiness and success will change during life.

    I refuse to believe that this is true for every friendship. Probably for most though...

    You would not be friends or lovers or anything with anyone if it didn't do something for you. Even doing charity work is inherently selfish because it releases a neurotransmitter called oxytocin which makes you feel good. When you really are getting nothing out of a friendship, you have a nagging feeling cuz your body is missing the oxytocin.

    Well duh, humans come together out of the desire for companionship, not arbitrary necessity! Healthy satisfaction of both partners is a primary part of all successful relationships and I'm afraid anything else is just toxic.

    True ! I am a friend because I want a friend... It`s a good deal too, because I have many friends, but I still only am one friend :)

    But people might be thinking about you in order to think about themselves. Judging, comparing. To see if they fit, to make themselves feel better, or (sometimes) worse.

    I actually also see it as actually putting oneself down... I mean, if you think that because you can do it, it must mean everybody can, then you definitely don't think of yourself as any better than anyone else in anything.

    Everyone is important but it doesn't mean that you and your opinion are more important than the others. It's healthy to respect yourself and to want to be respected as a person... yet no one deserves the respect he/she doesn't give to the others.

    Everyone is important; each interaction we have ripples through the world. Every act of kindness makes someone a little happier, and more likely to be kind to the next person they interact with. Every act of indifference or cruelty makes the recipient sad or angry, which they spread to the next person. A simple smile and "hello" could save a life, and that makes us all mean something.

    Right and if everyone is important than in reality no one is. Which is the most valuable penny in the fountain? Coins of little value tossed away wondering which of them matters more when together they are worth something. Individual importance is a myth.

    This isn't even a truth, that's just trying to be depressing. Most people aren't important in the grand scheme of the world, btu most are important to someone. Some will even change a the world.

    "Nothing matters, humans are insignificant" Only in the grand scheme, but on a personal level, everything matters, and everyone is significant, to themselves and the people around them.
