Phanerothyme Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Damn straight. And don't worry about the past or the future, they don't exist. It's now, or never. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a job that you love and a girlfriend that you adore you are doing ok. You have got something that lots of people have not got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fartown Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 OP: That's one of the best (most uplifting) posts I've read on this forum. I wish you well. You deserve luck and happiness. With your attitude, you'll probably continue to find both. I sincerely hope so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medusa Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Yes, there is always something that you can find to be thankful for, even if it's a very out of date concept and it's much more the in thing to whinge about what you haven't got instead. If you're relatively healthy, in a good relationship with someone who makes you happy and whom you make happy and you're in a job which gives you fulfilment then there could be a lot worse happening in your world and remembering the good things is always handy. As long as the bills don't make me worry too much, I'd choose poor and happy over rich and miserable any day. Anybody who says that being well off makes you happy is too shallow to give you any decent advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
