Life sucks like a sucker. I had it all, a good IT job, loads of money, a beautiful wife, a small child. Now it has all gone basically. I have a shit job, cant pay mortgage and need to move out, wife has left me and taken kid, I lost all my money in failed business. Life sucks. It really does. It's ok when you start with nothing, but when you have it all and lose it all you are screwed. Sucks. | |
At least you have some peace in your life. I feel as though my peace has been ripped away from beneath my feet. All the while I am standing here in shock and disappointment, wondering why I made the decisions I did, and why someone or something couldn't stop me from my madness. It's devastating, especially because I know deep down inside that I could have prevented this huge loss. But I didn't. I instigated it. And now I'm paying dearly.
All I want is my peace once again. All of you who have peace in your life, be thankful for it. Hold on to it. Peace is a precious gift. If you have peace, you have a great life. Don't tamper with it. Be thankful. Think about me and these other poor chaps.
Sure you may not have everything materially. But if you have love and peace in your life, then believe me: You have a great life.
You can't give up. I just have to keep working hard, believing that I will have peace again one day. I'll get myself out of this hell-hole. And in the end I will be a champion. And I'll thank God.
I learnt to focus on reality and forget the past. From there I made few friends and moved to work in IT. In these past few years I got let go twice. The last one was just 5 weeks ago. I have been helping my buddy at a coffee shop doing part time ever since. I didn't give up. Treating it as another life lesson. I got an offer just yesterday for a senior manager role. You never know.
I look around and see other people getting all types of support and help from their families in these tough economic times. It just appalls me that my own family can be so cruel and petty. If you have a place to stay, food in your belly, and the love and support of family, then you are doing alright.
Crap happens, but thank god you have family to fall back on. Unfortunately, the folks like myself got dealt the wrong family and have to suffer the rest of our lives for it. Best of luck to you in these tough times.
There is always someone who has it better than you and always someone who has it worse. Fucking deal with it.
I can only say this from my own experience having risen and fallen many times-when you are at the bottom there is no place to go but up :)
keep your chin up!
