I'm on an endless cycle of feeling so bitter about why things in my life does not happen as I want them to be and I want to be bitter with these lists of people but as of now I accepted reality completely. Past is past and there is nothing more we can do with past. In this life, it's impossible to achieve all we want, some things will work, some things will flop. So, right now all I can do is embrace all errors in life, stop blaming anyone else. If things work out right, Thanks, if it will not then just sleep leave it alone, move on.

Think positive and just don't give up! That's life yes, and we are all experiencing the ups and downs in life and of course the stronger one will remain standing. If we fail now, just think that its not the end yet, tomorrow is always another day and there's always hope. Prayers will help a lot when things are already uncontrollable.(well atleast for my belief) Life....(sigh...sigh...sigh...)Its too short, so let's just enjoy it as long as we still have it!

Do some volunteer work. When you bring joy to others, you bring joy to yourself.

Right, sometimes we just need to be strong because life has unexpected blows here and there what is important is we keep on being strong.

Hi, That's a really good attitude, sometimes it is really hard to let go and accept that we fail to achieve some things/goals that we really wanted to have or get. But accepting the reality about it, can somehow make us feel better and start moving on.

Yeah, attitude matters. If we accept reality, we can feel much better.

Move on and don't let negative things stopped you from doing things that you want to achieve. Failure, mistake and bad things should be taken positively. Take time to learn from all those things and do your best to start a new.

Yeah, it should be my attitude that even if there are negative things around don't let them stop me from my positive goals.

I love it when I see such positive attitude in people, no matter what life serves them. We have all learned that life is what happens when we make other plans, so instead of complaining, we try to make use of what came up. You're right, what happened in the past, stays in the past and there is nothing we can do about it, unless someone invents a time machine in the near future. In the meantime, we try to learn from our mistakes and try to be better persons.

Absolutely. Giving up is not an option if we want to grow ourselves as better humans so the best way to do it is to learn from our mistakes and to listen to people with experience. And, of course, to have a postivie thinking about life.

Yup, we learn from others mistakes and I should not be afraid to make mistakes, what is important is we keep on trying.

you right, just let the past go and facing the future because life must go on and there will lots of to do with future. Just let the past as our lesson, reviewed it and if any failed from it, be it as our lesson and dont do it again in the future.

Whatever happens happens. You must be ready to lose something if you want something.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. I said, "whatever happens happens" no "it" in between.

There have been a lot of things that have happened in my life that I've really not been all that happy with. However, I've learned that we really do have to just accept things as they happen. If something bad has happened to us, then we really need to just accept it and move on. If we are to dwell on only the bad things that have happened in our lives, then there is really no way that we would ever be able to have any kind of happiness in our lives.

I completely can relate to what you are saying. For awhile now I have become bitter about all the things that are and are not happening in life. It at times have become overwhelming frustrating. I hope that things will improve for you and for me as well. Yeah we definitely have to move on from the past. That is what I'm trying to do. I didn't go to college when I was younger because I had different goals then. Now my goals have changed and I hope to go to college now. Things are changing drastically for me and I hope that I can keep up with it. I just have to do my best to plan and take care of what needs to be taken care of. I have until August of this year to save and prepare for going to college to the best of my ability. I hope you reach your goals.

I hope you reach your goals too. Some people could be like me, totally unsatisfied but I realized there is still time to do something and look for better ways to get what I want.

While it is only natural and sometimes true to blame others, you have the only way to change things and make yourself the person you really want to be. If I had known the things then like I know now I would have done so many things differently way back then.

Yeah it's natural feeling to find who to blame but I realize it does not help. I just have to let go and do what I can with my time now.

Do some volunteer work - help out at a food bank, etc. Travel to a third world country and help out those in poverty. Move on to what? What do you want to accomplish in life? Do you want to do something meaningful in life? The reality is that each of us can do something towards helping others. Whenever I feel kind of useless, I just remember that I am still capable of helping those less fortunate than myself. I have helped make gift baskets to give to those who have lost a loved one. I have make hats for the homeless. These are some of the little things that I do for others. We can each do something that can make our lives more meaningful and useful that can help bring joy to others as well as to ourselves.

Great idea. I would love to do volunteer work because it gets the focus out of yourself and you get to focus on other people too who has bigger problem than you are.

I can totally understand your feelings now.I am not satisfied with my life now,I always think my life should be more happier and wealthier if I work hard in the past,but spilt water can't be gathered up again.There's nothing we can do with the past,so just look ahead,the brighter future is waiting for us.
