    i was awake all night thinking about things.

    i have come to realize that being "a great guy", "a wonderful man", and "an amazing person", or whatever other fucking meaningless platitude that people want to assign to me, has never, ever, one time paid off for me. i always end up where i am right now.

    all the guys who have the things i want in life are assholes. i realize now that nice guys really do finish last. i can not be anyone other than who i am, and what everyone on here sees is what they get.

    i am tired of finishing last, and i am tired of this race, and i'm not gonna run in it anymore.. i am so done with it.

    I believe in Karma. I do hear that in "the End" the long race called which I've aptly named "my time in hell" finally pays off by finishing last. Every f'er that cheated me, lied to me or treated me like a pile of *shit
    * shall get theirs by finishing first :D

    you shouldn't expect a pay off for being nice. and there's no other way to be than nice, assholes lose in the end.

    maybe it's time to re-evaluate what/who you want in life.

    Good -- you shouldn't play the game, and you shouldn't try to be anyone other than who you are.

    The moment you start living life that way and stop judging your position in life against others is the moment when you'll start feeling better about your life.

    Best of luck.

    I found out yesterday I will need open heart surgery. The last one I had was in 1975.

    It is not an emergency, but strongly recommended. First I have to get a job that offers short term disability.

    June 26th-stroke
    July 29th-laid off
    August 15-pulmonary valve replacement recommended (open heart surgery)

    Can I have Christmas early this year? How about all of December. I think I deserve it.

    Some stuff is just not meant to be, even though it might be hard to accept. The partnership game is not easy. Lots of factors have to align in order for it to work out. And lots of times they don't. I've been there too... Don't change who you are or in what you believe, stay true to yourself, and stay that great guy, wonderful man and amazing person. Be glad that you got to experience something good. Time will heal you, hang in there, the good stuff will happen again.

    Nevertheless, I'm so sorry to hear this :(

    i'd rather finish last and be a good person than finish first and be an asshole...but then, i quit this "race" a long, long time ago

    I've had so many MRIs recently, why don't you just take one of mine?
    They are very interesting, like abstract art.

    On the more serious side, I hope everything works out for you.

    :lol: mine is on my brain. I've had 65 hours of surface EEG for it - so 45 minutes of MRI should be ok :)

    Hope everything works out for you too x

    oh ms. haiku ... youDESERVE everything you wish for, and more!!!
    you are one of THE most wonderful people i've never had the pleasure to meet.

    my life has been a shit-show for quite some time. many, many things going wrong ... not as i wish them to be ... working so hard to get somewhere, and getting no where. that said, i've had a LOT of joy, and overall, my life is STILL pretty damn good, considering. and reading your words reminds me once again, i AM lucky, very lucky.


    much, much love to you - and please, please, please ... may the powers that be, truly give you ALL you deserve, as you deserve EVERY happiness.

    I'm sorry for whatever it is you're going through. The lyric in my signature just struck me in reading this. Sometimes you just have to accept yourself, others, and situations for what they are. You can drive yourself crazy wishing they were different, but in the end all the wishing doesn't change anything..so you have to try to find the light in it. And don't wish to change for anybody, because the only reflection of your worth that matters is the true reflection of you.

    I don't judge. Just know it happens. That's why I tell people I know who get frustrated or bummed about the "rat race" is to forget about that shit and move in the purest of actions without the "me" syndrome. Just do the right thing.

    I'm that. Just like you said.

    After my stroke I realized how good it is to be that.

    Don't wait until you have a stroke to know how good you are.
