| I hate the past 25 years, but this decade has been the worst because we are officially in hell. How can anyone be happy when the world is so awful? Sure people might have moments of happiness but it's all a temporary escape, an illusion. A state of temporary denial. The worst year for me was when I... |

| Thank you, I hope other people on this forum can find what makes you happy, sometimes things are not always attainable, and you do the best you can, if you can't achieve what others achieve, make sure you can do what you can handle, and build from there. |
