Lashing out, mostly out of disgruntledness

[Chicks_N_Horses]

I think redhen is right. Stress will cause you to be disgruntled when normally you wouldn't be.

Try and find somthing that will relax you. I will say a prayer for you

I find that the older I get the nicer I get LOL

I want to apologize to those who work hard for the "pathetic minimum wage" comment that I made -- I have a horrible habit of looking to shock people to retaliate against a wrongdoing and saying things I don't mean -- that was definitely one of them and I felt sick to my stomach after I said it. The girl was on a late night shift so I probably will not encounter her again -- if I do, she most likely will just see me as one of many faces in a huge supermarket.

It would be a gracious on your part to apologize to her, and you'll feel better. We're not the right people to offer forgiveness, since we weren't the ones who were hurt.

I have made 2 comments in my lifetime that taught me that snappy comebacks are only cool in the movies. I remember each as clear as day, despite one having happened ~20 years ago and the other was about 15 years ago. I regret both of them to this day. I have since apologized and received forgiveness but I'll never forget how terrible they sounded, nor how awful everyone felt after I'd uttered a nasty one-liner. That memory prevents me from doing it again.

i have to agree about the facebook and people lying... i can totally tell you it's true. I mean, i had a "friend"(who is no longer my friend cuz she's a lying witch) anyway, she would say her hubby is awful and terrible and a bad dad and other bad things about certain things... naughty things.. so then on myspace.. she says her hubby is a great and wonderful man, the love of her life and great thigns about certain things. i dropped her like a hot potato. she would rub it in my face that she has girls and a BOY when i have all girls. she was sooooo terrible about it. she knew i wanted a boy terribly. but i would rather wait to see how things turned out. and she would always say her body was so awful but yet she would take NUDE pregnancy pics. grossed me out. i mean, i don't mind nude pics(they were tasteful for the most part) but how can a person say their bodies look awful and then post a pregger pic? ugh. totally two faced. she was nice to her day care persons face but then went onto live journal and said all kinds of mean things about the day care lady's daughter. she was fat and had clown hair. now the little girl was like 5 years old. and the "friend" saying this was like 25. so how awful is that?

don't go onto face book/myspace or anything of the like. i say my hubby is wonderful.. maybe at the time i wrote it

lol. i do love him but he's not always great. everyone has problems. don't ever think they don't.

i have to say when people are stupid and/or rude i want to say something but thankfully i dont. i have a hard time controlling it, i am a people pleaser but i just hate stupidity and rudeness. i see someone cutting us off and my road rage just flares. Thankfully, i don't drive.. ugh what a mess.

i am also getting depressed and angry at my life. I am almost 28, with three kids, and a hubby. car is iffy, house is poopy.... yard is awful(bumpy and it's a hill, no real flat land except where the coop/garage/house sits) so the kids have no real place to play. a new house is gonna cost 122,000 to put here.. we need a new septic, and we aren't sure we will be able to make the payments on it. so we have to sit down and really see if we can. we have a person who just built up behind us(it was all woods before) im depressed cuz i have to look at that every day.. and i have a crappy trailer house that im afraid won't make it another year. friends are having babies left and right.. and every single one is having a boy(and i am being totally truthful on that.. not even one is having a girl) so.. yeah.. i can understand some of it.
Good luck. I feel for ya sorry so long

Before the economic plunge i was looking forward to a new deck and a hot tub with the refi on my house and living the good live always imagined i would live in a mansion and would win the nobel prize... (lol

) I thought this would all happen i am young mostly nayeve and foolish

I have realized tho when i went fishing on the lake and saw that all the charming houses had been replaced with huge mansions and no yard (literally some filled up the whole lot!) That I am proud of what i have i hardly know anyone who can say they have as loving parents as i have and i talk about my life to my friends and they say wow your parents are SO strict no gmail no bumming at the mall, and i say but u dont have the coolest birds in the world my chickens, your parents are never around because they go on vacations without u and take trips all the time and when they r home never spend time with you, and u have a 4x4 foot patio for a yard no lawn no chicken coop no garden full of vegetables, and ya they have a mansion for a house but i have a teeny tiny house but its cozy it has charm and i never get lost finding the bathroom! I have learned that you have to be grateful because crying screaming and yelling is putting yourself through more pain, no1 is ever going to grant all your wishes and crying about it just wastes the day when I could be enjoying all earths creatures. Bsides all the snobs out there have everything they want and are still dissatisfied they treat friends like crap so they have none and i would rather have no friends at all than have a ton who secretly hate me and talk behind my back

Life will never be easy for if it where it would be boring and somewhat pedictable...... and we need change in order to grow as people.

Stay away from facebook, the only forum you will ever need is here with us on BYC, you will receive truth, honesty and fanastic advice, but remember only you have the ability to change what you feel is not right in your life, you do have the ability within you to grow and expand both mentally and physically.

Sit down quietly and alone, and evaluate what has been in your life, what is in your life, and what you personally want from life. From there compile a list of grievences and positives....... work towards a goal, think positive for it truly works, endeavour never to think "bad thoughts" about anyone, it rebounds.

Don't envy those whom you think have more than you, for do they really?

Life is an ever changing merry go round, it is not perfect nor are we, to strive for perfection inevietably results in disappointment.

There is always someone somewhere worse off than you, so strive to help others as well as helping yourself.

As my good friend Jena said before me.....there are no pockets in shrouds ...it is very very true. Life is for living, it is not a rehersal, so live it without worrying about what you have not got........ for you are a long time dead.

Now stand up tall and straight, shout your name to the heavens and remember you are who you are, and no-one can take that away from you. Think good and positive thoughts, and live life to the full. Give yourself a hug.............. here's one from me to start you off

Now go on and get out there .................. Live in peace within yourself, and life will be good.

There is no Perfect Life. In my 35 years I have learned this, often unexpectedly. Things and people who I thought were happiest and the best off were often living a lie. At a time in my life where things went down hill fast, and my simple little life that I enjoyed was torn apart, and the only people I had left were those that came to me and explained their hidden faults and that I was not alone- that in life is what matters. The older I get the more I realize this. Stuff is just stuff, while it is nice to have at times, it does not console you when you are sad or give you hope or true joy. Write down on a piece of paper what angers you... no matter how stupid sounding, write it down. Often by writing it down we find the true reasons of what is upsetting us, often we didn't even know. Enjoy the little things, as those are precious and are truly yours and often bring us the most happiness. Wake up each morning knowing you have a choice............... you can enjoy the day no matter what........ or you can let one more chance of a simile slip by, a little piece of happiness be smothered or what ever joy be silenced. Also....... Forgiveness if given for you, not for the person you are giving it to. I forgive for me, not for them. It is to heal my heart... no one else' s. If you expect it to heal anyone else you may be disappointed..... Just a little piece of info I've learned over the years.
