How did you end up in Michigan?
Hell is a state of mind. You are always free to travel in and out of Hell.
I am in hell, and there is no chance of escape. So let me be, for Heaven's sake! Let me eat what's on my plate. Until I am no more.
Cast not your gaze upon my strife. Hear me not in death, as in life. Touch not the edge of my captor's knife. For now I am no more.
Extinguish my flame, is what I say. But the Lord doth call me back to his way. Your suffering will end, but not today. Rejoice! Lament no more.
(I'm not very good at poetry but I tried)
No, reading that was a little glimmer of joy in a fucking awful day.
Glad I could help. You are not alone in this awful and amazing world.
I am in hell, and there is no chance of escape. or so they say forevermore. But then their mouths all go agape when I pull chocolates from the drawer.
So let me be, for Heaven's sake! my teenage daughter says again, "You're giving me a huge headache." When she'll be smart, I know not when.
Let me eat what's on my plate. my son lamented at midnight. The food was cold that he'd not ate. Next time he won't put up a fight.
Until I am no more. this lost, I'll try to find my way around. The price of gas is a huge cost yet I'm on unfamiliar ground.
I dig it
Escape is a function of your habits. I'm right there with you trying to calculate an authentic escape of my habits
Why did I give those up?
That's ur shit. I know my habits were smoking pot, masturbating, and drinking. I'm doing better than i was. YOu can be a better you too
Why does it seem that all the things that bring some degree of fleeting happiness in a world of shit are not in our long term best interest ?
If you're going through hell, do not slow down, do not stop.
👋🏻
Embrace the suck I'm going through lots of shit myself. You want things to be a lot different, I get it. Sometimes though you just gotta go through to get through. It may not bring any comfort but just know you are far from alone in going through shitty times
The bastards may grind me down but I grind them in return.
Phrasing, Mr. Kent.
Phrasing, cousin of Superman.
Phrasing, oh wordsmith.
The right word in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world. Be the Butterfly Effect.
I'm sorry you're suffering so much dude. Keep your head high, body clean. You'll get out.
You inflict this upon yourself
How?
Go to work. Go to the gym. Refrain from doomscrolling the internet. Refrain from trying to cheat your way out of problems via substance abuse. Go to church.
Inside of a year, no more woe because you just fixed 90% of your problems.
I go to the gym, I go to work, I go to a meeting everyday, I drank three times in the past 10 months, I'm not sure what the fuck you are talking about
