Posted by Anonymous on 2012/09/21 under Uncategorized It is easy to say motivating and encouraging stuff about picking up on life. Sorry if I’m being cynical, but as I read some of the attempts by the users to cheer us up, it doesn’t really resonate with me. These concepts about optimism and stuff just feel so… distant and detached. When one hits the rock solid bottom of his/her life, these advice just don’t sink in. The only comfort that I can gain from reading some of these posts is the fact that I’m not alone. This is probably the most encouraging thing because at least I know that many people out there are having a hard time too. Not that I enjoy basking myself in the misfortune of others, but it just provides a sense of ‘belonging’ and a reassurance that I’m not the protagonist of a misfortune-packed drama.
