So tomorrow is my birthday. nobody seems to give a fuck.

I'm feeling really down right now. Tomorrow is my birthday and I am alone in this world. I chose to live this way some twenty years ago. I picked using drugs and fucking whores and I ran away from all my loved ones. So let this be a warning to anyone out there, male or female. Do the right thing while you still can. You'll live to regret it if you don't. My question: Is it normal for me to still have hope? I'm 62 come tomorrow. Can I still turn my worthless life around? I think the answer is yes. But it would sure be nice to hear it from someone. Otherwise, you might be reading about me in your morning paper. But not to worry, I would nevere take anyone else out with me. Hope I'm around tomorrow to read your comments. I sure hope so. Goodbye.

    redemption comes in many forms, and at many different stages of life. analysis, humility and communication are now key.

    If you really want to change you can change. Go to rehab, Apologize to your family for being an ass, tell them you still love them and you realize what you did was wrong.

    Happy Birthday. It is never too late to turn around. The question you need to ask yourself is are you willing to do the work and stick to the work that it takes to turn around and change your life. Changing your life is never an easy process. It takes not giving up even when it is the very thing you want to do. Turning your life around means deciding to not even associate yourself with the people you did when you were on drugs because it would be too tempting to erase all the hard work you have done in cleaning your life up from drugs. Turning around means entrusting in someone to hold you accountable when you fall. Are you ready to be held accountable? Are you ready to do the work it takes to get clean?

    By the way the Bible can give you all the forgiveness, courage, and answers you could ever need.

    Lol. I'm always astonished if anyone remembers my birthday, I'm pretty sure if Facebook didn't tell people, nobody would know. Who can remember everyone's birthday anyway? Don't feel like no one cares. People are just busy and have busy minds

    Happy birthday, go get a free meal or a free drink a lot of places give out free stuff if you show them your license.
    Maybe this isn't the best comparison but if it wasn't too late from Ebeneezer Scrooge its not too late for you...

  • Happy birthday. You've made it this far so why give up now? It's up to you what your future may hold. I find the worst things in life can be inspiring and motivating at times because it makes me want things to be better for myself and others.

    Of course, it is normal to be continue being hopeful. You can turn your life around if you want to. Anything is possible. :)

    Happy birthday! I know exactly how you feel, but this has been a long-time phenomena for me. It's sad. I don't know what's wrong with people. Excluding some family members, no one can seem to arse themselves to remember my birthday. Thankfully, I gave up celebrating birthdays along with my mother (she says that it has pagan origins). Not celebrating birthdays, especially my own, has given me some peace at mind. I stopped being invited long ago, so what's the point? I think you should say "screw it" and go celebrate your birthday the way you want to. Celebrating a birthday alone can be depressing, but only if you allow it to be. Go do something fun. :)

    I am not sure if it is still the practice but the Dutch custom for birthdays & mother's day & father's day is the reverse of American custom.
    celebrates her children, Father's day the same.

    Each child on their birthday does something special for their mother and father. On Mother's Day the mother

    You could adopt a similar custom. On your birthday you could phone the people who have been meaningful and loving to you in your life and give thanks to them for being apart of the times in your life that you now treasure the most.

    Of course it's possible and you just took the first step toward it! You reached out for help and that's a good start.

    Usually people can do anything they want and very few things are actually impossible, we just lack motivation...

    So Happy Birthday to you, you wonderful human being! Take this chance and do something good. Do not only expect something good to happen, go out there and do the good for others too! And especially do it for yourself. I wish you the best, even if it's just a text on a random website... Good luck!
