No. Life sucks with very short interruptions of slight happiness.

Not at all. If you expect **** and don't get it, you are happy. If you expect gold and don't get it, which is what happens most of the time, you are pissed off. So expect ****, get it, no problem. Get something better, happy! 😉

Well that is one way to look at it.

yes, Fuzz, but if you are expecting to find ****, then when you come across something new, you will first see it for **** and miss out on a whole lot of good stuff in the process

Posts 1 and 2, good example of glass half full/half empty. I know which philosophy I prefer.

I agree with Fuzz and Jet here. The Older you get the more realistic you become. A good day is when the pain isn't as bad as usual.

The glass is neither half full, nor is it half empty. It is a 16oz glass with 8oz in it.

LOL @ daqueen

we have a roof overhead, food, clean water, clothes, and medicine

we are safe by the Grace of God

we have Grandma and Grandpa and Uncle Eddie and family et al.

and have a good dog and a fluffy cat

and I can write without worrying about someone slitting my throat in this country

life IS good

this is what I tell my kids anyway...less the throatslitting part (I'm still upset about the killing of a friend of the family...sorry)

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound

That saved a wretch like me....

Life is what you make it. If you go through it all negative don't expect much in return. On the other hand if you smile and let things roll off you, the doors to other better opportunities will open.

What does that have to do with anything? I would imagine that if I spent 50+ years being negative and down about everything I would be burnt out, but why do that to yourself when the other side is so much more fun?

#12 You just brought the wrong glass, because you don't care enough about me and my needs to think things through.

Actually, I was just going to say buy an 8 oz glass. ^ It is what it is...
