    Oh Mal. I kind of get your words, but really...some die just to live?

    Perhaps, but others don't.

    Please do not discount your value to your wife. To your children.

    To YOURSELF.

    Sometimes I want to kick some of you in the ass. Not from lack of affection, but because of it.

    And this, master Jedi, is why we love you!

    There is no there, there - or here :)

    DEP, I'm listening to a song where your post is sublime and perfectly-related.

    Bunch of oddballs in this place. Happy to be a part of it, them, you, us.

    Unbelievably tragic story from Cavan today, I just can't even begin to imagine what could lead someone to this

    Been having a really hard time, for about 18 months now, with the purpose of it all. Its not just about death and destruction.....what is even the point of life at all, even when happy? I know it's cliche. The "Why are we here?" mindset. But i cant stop. It never bothered me until well after my kids were born. never thought about it until around 40 years old. I need a book or something.

    Not that you asked me, but my answer is: There is no ultimate purpose. :) We just are, just like all the other animals on Earth. We're a part of the whole though, so I suppose there is a reason for us being here. The atoms, protons, quarks, et al that we are made of are a part of the wide universe, and therefore necessary. :) After that, I figure it's all just about how you feel.
    With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata

    Hang tough, sweet Tree.

    Who lives a normal life, anyway?

    You know where and to whom you can reach out.

    Me! A wife, two kids, dead end job, waiting to die.
    That made me think of a man I used to know. This was approximatly his situation. He just decided he had waited long enough.
    He's on my mind now.

    Yes. It has just been a treacherous last few days. I still get moments of just pure, deadly rage over what they are going through. My heart aches for them.

    I wonder why that happens to so many people when they are around 40. Have you ever read a book called Everybody Wants To Go To Heaven But Nobody Wants To Die by David Crowder? It might cheer you up and it makes you think... I hope you're feeling a lot better soon.

    I'm in a cafe and a different version of "Summertime," that I haven't heard before is on the speakers. It's Billy Stewart or Billy Stuart. Male voice, jazzy, saxophone, very cool.
