Anyone have to rethink their life?

[warrior queen]

What criteria did you use?
I make lists - endless lists.
None of which actually help me make a decision.

 

[LadyVer]

Not really. I've done enough of that.

Honestly, if you have any really close friends or family that you can discuss stuff with they may be more helpful than lists. I also suggest a long walk, listening to music, watching a favorite movie, eating your childhood comfort food, or maybe a pro/con list if you need to get more specific.

Also your post was very general, is there anything in particular you might want to share?

I have 8 rules for my life and never think about anything that can't fit into or under one of them:

Work hard
Enjoy yourself
Don't let it get to you
Know what you are supposed to be doing
Know what you are actually doing
Value your time
Stick to your principles
Learn from your mistakes

Have a great weekend!

I really want things to be different - but my recent diagnosis, as well.as that of my child, have made a difference.
Now I need to rethink everything:-(

If there is a 9th rule it's "remember your life can change in a second."

There is nothing for health issues other than seek the best care and resolution possible.

Best of luck!

I spend much of my time figgering out whats true, then apply the knowledge to test its correctness. Then I file it away.

[gardenia19]

Yes I have. I made changes based on what makes me happy.

Who doesn't reevaluate their lives? Who doesn't face adversity? Do you think you're the first person in history who has a tough time? The actual, honest stories of many of the people here would make you ashamed of being such a drama queen.


Also, there was a betting pool about what you would be "diagnosed" with next. Interesting turn.

Doesn't everyone? Every single day? Or do you mean in which direction you need to go from where you are? That's different. That's generally predetermined by the incident and the persons character.

With me it's simple, it starts with one question: Do I have any influence over the outcome?

If it's yes, then I do what I can and should do.

If it's no, then I accept it and move on to those things I have influence over.

Life is what life is. It ain't preordained by some magical being in the sky.

Celibate the things that are good.

Do what ever you can about the things that are bad.

Accept the things that cannot be changed.

Know the difference between them.

Simple rules for complex beings. But they work.

I got $20 bucks on breast cancer and $20 on a kidney removal/transplant.

Hopefully, whatever the diagnosis may allegedly be...

...a lobotomy is the only known cure.

 

[eric60red]

Yes all the time, but I keep getting way laid, looking at all the gorgeous females, on Lit. Your all adorable

 

[CandiCame]

Kill the part of yourself that you hate. Drag that bastard into a back alley and shoot him in the fucking head. Then light a cigarette and prepare for the worst haunting of your life.

Very true! The Sun don't shine up the same dogs ass every day.

Just once, I was at this bar selling death sticks, and some guys waved his hand at me and told me to go home an rethink my life. So I did, but then this guy was betrayed by his student, the Republic fell, and we got an Emperor. So I decided that fucker should rethink his life, mine was just fine.
