  • i am probably twice your age and still sometimes get depressed over the same things...until you really experience them (or remember you already experienced them), it can be hard to believe that the good things (relatively speaking) exist too, but they do...and of course, they can make life worth living, and sometimes will work themselves into a crappily perceived life just when they are needed...however, i like the quote (roughly, as it is by memory) 'we love and hate for equally stupid reasons'. no matter if this quote is true, go with what feels the most important to you...life feels like a joke more than half the time, but when you're involved with something that you really do care about (if you can eventually find something like that), the moments that don't feel like jokes are amazing, even if you are still somewhat aware that alot of this is f*ing ridiculous and sad...and if you can't find what that thing is or those things are, accepting that there is not a concrete thing to care about can help tremendously and help you just enjoy whatever it is that is infront of you... also don't forget that nothing is permenant. evolution (even w/in humanity) is still going on. who knows what type of race of creatures we will be in the future? perhaps truly awful or dead due to our stupidity, or perhaps some branch of us will be thriving and not destroying everything around us (including ourselves) because we've literally become beings who are not as capable of making idiotic choices, as we do now, so frequently...the only other thought that i can offer on a stupid internet forum is that it doesn't really matter how stupid/fake/immoral other people are...worry about yourself first...in life and death you are truly alone in a way. you are stuck with yourself, so figure out what can actually make you happy, truly happy and healthy...without worrying to excess about what others do/say. at the end of any day, who do you actually have to live with 24/7? You. don't judge others often (or ideally, don't actually feel the judgements that you notice most), just try to contribute in the way that expresses how you wish this world actually was...repetitive, but don't make a point to judge...everyone's most inner life is insanely private, and most of us don't know much about those that we think we know well on the deepest level, let alone those that we see on the street/in the media...it's easier to live life not assuming too much, though i know it's REALLY hard not to assume. without religion to fill in the blanks, all i can say is that we're all stuck here in these same fleshy suits, without explanation...enjoy what you can and don't forget that hopefully your parents or one of your parents really loved you and wanted you to be here (even if they don't know why they wanted that), and enjoy what you can, and help others enjoy what they can as well...(ha ha sorry...so preachy)
