Life in others shoes 

This topic is dedicated to those out there that would like to get things off their chest about their lives. I'll begin with my life.

~~ What do you do when your best friend you've known for over 10 years begins taking drugs, influenced by those he works with?

~~ What do you do when your mother has herself so stressed over money? Shes diveroced and yet strives from her ex to support her.

~~ What do you do when your sisters arn't doing as well as they could in school? Being more influenced by friends about being prepy instead on concerntrating on more inportant things.

~~ What do you do when you yourself suffer the life of working a dead-end job and still being supported by your father?

~~ What do you do when your father has all this stress everyday he comes home? Constantly throwing out money to his daughters, his son and his ex.

Are these the kinds of things that drive a person to kill him/herself to get their family back in order?

RE: Life in others shoes 

What do you do. you do what you can small things. Don't take it lying down. well I'm not the king of advise but this is what I think.
1. Cook your dad a meal
2. dead end job is something I'm used to apply for other jobs on occasion but look for one you know you can shine in. also do the best you can in the job you got.
3. give your family support and respect they might not see things the same way as you but family are family.
4. preppy sisters are young in time they grow up lead by example
There are thousands of little things you can do in your heart you know the right things. Being strong and good and kind and loving your focus on the big picture can determine the way things go even if only a little bit.
As for the last part suicide is for Hitler because he couldn't run away there are always better options even if everything else I say is a nonsence one thing trust me on its killing yourself is not a smart plan. I know allot of people who allmost did and are glad they didn't me included.

Dude Hitler knew it was the best option becouse he would never be free'd or would have been killed if he would have been found. He had the option to run away THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN THE COWARDNESS.. he decided to die in that bunker and rather took his life away by his own hands than the hands of the enemy. He even got his body burned to dust becouse of the fear that russians would have putten his body into that museum they have. I know Hitler got lots of people killed, but he had his own visions of world you don't really even know about. You just get told "Oh hitler was a monster who killed millions of ppl for his own amusement" you should really into the facts of his life etc. Not just maybe to the ones that read on ur history book. IMO he was no coward.

OK well err hitler was an example of someone killing them selves.
IMO he had no other option.
Your saying he could have run away past thousands of troops on each side. The result is the same he killed himself rather than his try other options ->most people have more options don't commit suicide<- that's my point to anyone who is reading thinking about it.

My point was not a history lesson it was aimed at discouraging people from going the same rout emphasising that hitler was in a pretty bad spot when he topped himself (and his family). Derailing the thread before it gets off the ground so I'm not wanting to provoke further comment from this. If you want further discussion about hitler post a hitler rant of your own rather than both of us screwing this thread into the ground with camel spiders. you can quote me as much as you like.

RE: Life in others shoes 

I don't like how this topic starts going, we'll see a complete ''my opinion is better then yours'' wars going on, nice idea in theory, but i doubt this will work without people forever having arguments about one's opinions & views about other peoples choices in life.

I'm not looking for arguments. I know alot of people on this forum have problems, but wont share them because of whatever reason. One man's advice is another man's success.

i actually had seen this thread as i was about to head out for my hour long walk to work and didn't have a chance to reply.

Currently I have found myself with no dental insurance but I require partial dentures with an estimated cost of 3000 still to pay. I'm only 24 and I'm about to lose most of my teeth.

Short of my sister and her fiance I have nobody I socialize with on any regular basis. I know that even if someone did come a long that I would not allow myself into a serious relationship.

but I think it is better to look at what you can do instead of focusing on what you will do. with options come freedom, and that is the one thing that keeps me putting one foot in front of the other.

We all have issues, some more severe then others, but to see that its not just you who has problems is comforting in its own way.

and Exo, dont let the problems your family members have be your burden alone. If they wish to change then help them and support them, if they need it then be there to cheer them up, talk about issues, let them know that you do care.

You didnt choose them, but they are the only family you have.

Hitler had his own verson of the world. all know that...and evryone have that. just look at AL Quida they got their own verson of the world like many other. so now no more arguing.

ps. how can he burn his body when hes dead?
