It seems as though some people are in need of cheering up

Today is a day of cheering up, and I sincerely believe some people need it. Things happen in life which make us think "life sucks" or something related to that. The truth is, life can suck, but think about all of those happy times you have had (and do not tell me you have had none, I will find you and strangle you). The truth is, it is extremely rare to think about how lucky you are when life is going along swimmingly, but when something bad happens we always think about how unlucky we are, how the world hates us... you get the point. I think life itself is unexpected, but it is up to us to make the best of it. The lemons to lemonade saying may not be the one for you, but moping is not going to make anything better. If something goes wrong, do not ignore it thinking it will go away and do not go along thinking you need to "escape" to fix them. Suicide does not put an end to your problems, it puts an end to life- causing even more problems than those before and donn't even get me started on drugs and alcohol. They are a complete waste of time, and if you are a confident person who knows how to fight for himself/herself, you do not need them! I feel dissappointed to think that there are people who need this little talk, but I am more than willing to help. Anyway, if anyone else needs someone to talk to, just comment and let me know.

-whines about you not commenting-
Now that that's out of the way, I'm not suicidal(though I do need cheering up). Just confused.

Anyways, hope he sees this?

Ghazal said...

I don't know. I suggest we don't hold our breath.

Jessica said...

Well, I did tell him to breathe like his life depended it, so that would be a bit hypocritical of us, wouldn't it?

Anonymous Jameson said...

Another one? I thought you already did an anti-suicide post.
He? Stop being so secretive so people other than yourself can understand what's happening. That's the point of a BLOG.

Jessica said...

Yeah but if HE comes on here...oh, heck, it's Kraven.

Jessica said...

Although, Jameson, I'm curious as to why someone WITHOUT a blog would tell us the point of one.

Anonymous Jameson said...

Because it seems pointless to tell the world something if it's all in code. It's like using a DS as a paperweight.

Jessica said...

Which you would know all about. And I wasn't really telling the world, I was just telling Ghazal and if the world can figure it out, good for them.

Anonymous Jameson said...

Well, you keep talking about how anyone can see it.
Well, the world can now.

Bre said...

What did your mum say? And RANT.

Jessica said...

Didn't tell her.
And that blog is DEAD/

SamiltonRulz said...

yay! I feel special!

Yoritomo Yukiharu said...

Well... see... I haven't...
wait, yes I have...
and KRAVEN! CHEER UP! MOPING AND BEING DEPRESSED AND WORRYING ABOUT LITTLE THINGS IS MY JOB, NOT YOURS!
'course I also got depressed over something big (if u guys remember) but hey, whatever...

Ghazal said...

I am not exactly sure what you are talking about Matt, but I think I have an idea.

Jessica said...

I /think/ I remember.

Yoritomo Yukiharu said...

it involves another girl at another time....

Jessica said...

Yep, that's what I thought.

Ghazal said...

That is what I thought it was.

Anonymous said...

Heh, thanks for this. :)

I've got a question. What's the point of going through the trouble of reminding yourself of all the times you were happy? What's the point of "facing" all your problems, instead of running away? We are all going to die anyway, and nothing is going to matter then. So might as well just get it over with now and prevent a lot of crap from happening, right?

Ugh, I'm being really emo now, aren't I?

Ghazal said...

No problem. :) I just thought you needed it. I had a friend who was going through the same thing- wait, she is alive... Which goes to show that my motivational speeches (and moments of yelling) do work.

Reminding yourself that you are happy allows you to have the feeling that everything is okay, and things are not always in utter chaos. It gives you things to think about when you are sad, and provides a great escape from depressing thoughts and the occasional emo attitude because the world can not hate you if you are/were happy.

Slightly, but that's okay. ;)

Jessica said...

Ghazal, she wouldn't kill herself if you handed a loaded gun.

Anyhow, I'm gonna side with both of you. First of all, I think reminding yourself of when you were happy would make you feel worse. I think that's why they tell you not to live in the past. You /should/ look towards the future, and if that doesn't seem so bright either, screw it and turn your brain off(temporarily, I mean).

And we all have our emo moments.
