You should work for the Samaritans. . . . 😞
Yeah, that's what you are all here for... to SUFFER!
Then, in theory, if you do good you are rewarded... but if you fail then you SUFFER FOR ALL ETERNITY!!!
What a wonderful way to show that God loves you.

I've read about that, but I don't think it's a possible solution for me. If I was the kind of person who could follow that completely then I don't think I would be bothered about this latest thing that's got to me.
Maybe I should try Prozac instead. 🙁
you'll find life easier with Him there to guide you through it

Originally posted by Ian68With problems you can't tackle, for example ones that are out of your control, you can usually 'solve' the problem by altering your objectives. In other words, forget about achieving the impossible, and go for something easier. You never know, it might turn out to be better for you than the thing you thought you wanted in the first place.
It's not something that can just be tackled unfortunately. There has to be outside factors that fall into place first, and I don't think I really have control over those. If I tried to tackle the problem without that then I can see what the next problem is likely to be, and it would be way bigger than this.
Anyway, do you have a choice?

It's just come back into my mind again now.
Why did I post this on a public forum.

Originally posted by Ian68Yep. I wonder why things are like that. But otherwise would be boring. Like in relationship with girl, if everything is ok, it become a little bit straigtforward. But then suddenly you dream about she cheating you, and the other morning you love her more than entire universe. We discussed this theme on faculty, with prof. of psychology. Maslov piramid of human needs. When you reach them all, you almost end in nirvana but only for brief moment, and then here it comes again,new problems, new needs, new things to do... But from bad things you learn to appreciate moments of happines when they come. I reccomend you Bobby Mcferrin with Do not worry, be happy...🙂
Why is it you always seem to be just moving from one problem to another. Do you ever solve them all, or is there an endless line of them waiting for you?
Maybe it's just me, but it always seems that just when I'm sure that I'm happy with everything in my life, I somehow end up discovering something that I'm not happy with but never realised before.
