Well,lets find out... I cant stand to hearing people say how they hate there life, that what they have isnt good enough, or they hate their parents, all of this stuff wich they find so horrible other dont even have an inkling of what they have.and would do anything to have just a bit of it... do not like when people do this?.... I would like to hear about your life. starting from child hood. wether it was good bad inbetween whatever.. the pont if this is to show them people who do say things like this,that people dont have what others have,so how can your life be so bad? theres is worse... or was.......Not everyone had a bad child hood im sure.but hearing about good things somtimes lifts the spirits of thoes who havnt had thoes,just by reading because its kinda like a fantasy story,lol so have at it:) thanks!!

I had a great childhood and I don't think it has anything to do with our adult life. At the age of 60 I believe life is what we make it. If we try hard enough we can have a good life. My life sucks right now but I know it's my fault so I live with it.

"I had a great childhood and I don't think it has anything to do with our adult life" sorry but I fully disagree...our childhood and what happens in it is key to who we become, how we behave, think and feel as adults....I had a crap childhood and teen yrs full of abuse of all kinds and it DEFINATELY has TONS to do with my adult yrs from how I see things, how I think and feel to how I raise my kids and how I am in relationships etc.... Like lecanis, I suffer from PTSD, have for many yrs which again like lecanis, includes flashbacks (mind and physical "body flashbacks"), nightmares, various self preservation responses etc etc etc...How we lived, were raised, treated and such as kids is a huge factor in how we are as adults...

I'm not sure I agree with you that it has nothing to do with our adult life. But then again, because of my post-traumatic stress disorder, I have flashbacks a lot, and episodes where I actually feel sensations from abuse I suffered. So I can't find a way to not let it affect my life, since in a way my body and mind are still going through it.

I've had a pretty interesting life. I sometimes think that real life is actually more "dramatic" than any Hollywood script. And, everybody has good and bad things happen in his/her life. I won't go into details about my whole life, but suffice it to say that I've had it good, I've had it bad, but I definitely don't think my life was any better or worse than anybody else's.

No i don't. As life is a one time gift given by the ALMIGHTY then why should one hate it and the charm of the life is with the rough and tough things because if there is nothing like roughness there is no sense of softness so better start liking and start enjoying the life with all the ugly and beautiful things with it or you will start loosing its charm.

nice topic! Well, I used to feel that way too. I felt my life was so bad that I really had to work hard to survive, get a very low salary, people not wanting me, my family is very sickly, Hospital bills have never stopped coming or running after me...Sometimes I did cry about it. And give a lot of thought and asked God all the "whys" in the world. When I see a family getting around together shopping, merry-making , I felt so jealous because I could never do that or have that moment in my life again because my dad and sister have passed away. Too bad isn't it? But you know what? I have all my questions answered by God. And it's just a 5 letter word...it's J E S U S. Right now, with all the things that had happened to me...good or bad...i just stand still. because I know how much Jesus loves me and everyone one of us here. His love is so powerful that it diminished all my fears, hatred and lack of self-pity. My 'old" self has gone and passed away because of Jesus. That's why I try to live each moment with Him because He is only my refuge and leads my thinking. Everything is jus our mind and heart. So we must guard it. With Jesus we are safe! I am not trying to preach here or trying to convert atheist to believers..I am just sharing how i feel and this feeling can be shared with all of us here too. Thank you for this post. Jesus rocks! www.fillmyheart.blogspot.com

I use to walk around with the whole hate my life attitude. But I did have my reasons. When I was a young child I was molested by an older family member on more than one occasion. I had kind of pushed it out of my mind for a long time. But than attended a wedding as a young teenager, seen this person and went through a depression. Basically wanted to die. Had some counseling and got past that rough spot in my life. I had my son when I was 19 years old, dad bailed as soon as I was pregnant. Which At the time I was sad about but as soon as I had my son I was sooo happy. He's better off without the sperm donor anyway. My son didn;t need to grow up learning his morals. So all was well for a few years. Than one my 21st bday (new years eve) a guy didn;t take no for an answer. He went to jail but I still felt ashamed of what happened. It took a very look time to get over that. Now I am 26 years old. My son started 1st grade this year. I am finally in a relationship where I actually trust the guy. I am registered to start school in January to become a pharmacy technician. As of right now things are defiently looking up. This is what I have learned over the years. Life is a roller coaster with many ups and just as many downs. What doesn't kill us only makes us stronger. So one should take each day as it comes

i love my life, it's perfect for me. when i'm 17 years old my parent take me to metallica & Sepultura Show. That time in my country/ especially around me, 90% parent say no if they daughter ask to see that kind of music (here call metal). the day after i watch the show, my girl friends ( friend wich is girl) ask me about the show and keep saying how lucky I'm. for you know, metallica & sepultura only 1 time show here, thats why its very special for me.

Well I have a good childhood memories as long as I can remember. But life isn't always good. I've ever experienced fall in my life when I feel like I hate everything, Luckily I have a good friends who keep remind me how beautiful my life's are. Yes I agree with you, when we hear or read or watch anything good it will make us feel good too. That's what my friends did. Say anything beautiful about life, eventhough I know their life is not that good too. Now when I already passed that down feeling about life, I like to find a good reason to be happy and that makes my life happy and good too. As with my friends we keep saying anything good in front of anything bad. When one of my friend is diagnosed with cancer, we keep her busy thinking of anything good in her life, that she have us, her friends who will always by her side, that the doctor who took care of her is goodlooking, that she can have a long holiday and can watch lots of movies without worrying there is no time, etc... small things like that keep us laugh and happy and make us see anything bad positively..

Looking back on my life, I think I have a very good life for the first 20 years. I have loving parents, grandparents, brother, cousins and friends. I also excelled in my studies. However, after graduation, everything seems to turn for the worse =( I suffered my first breakup, my career was not smooth sailing, my parents and grandparents are not as healthy as before and etc. I treasure Love, Family, Health and Career a lot. However, all these seem to be going downhill. I try my best not to compare with my friends. Many of my friends are really blessed people. They have loving rich parents, they do not have to worry about money, they have nice caring boyfriends and etc. Despite that, I tell myself not to compare as comparing only make myself feel worse. Also, they may have problems which I may not know of. Everyone of us have our own problems so there's really no point comparing. We have to all learn to count our blessings. =D I really hope and believe that things will only become better. What goes up must come down. Likewise, what goes down must come up. I believe my life will change for the better. =D
