Almost got arrested today
    #5773983 - 06/20/06 08:28 PM (17 years, 7 months ago)

What a f**king life it's been for me recently.

My house catches on fire.

I have to live in a crappy hotel with my kids.

I find out my favorite band is breaking up.

I find out I have the following:
Herniated disc
Bulging disc
Degenerative disc disease

Then, my house gets broken into.

My mother leaves town(I'm very close to my mom). :frown:

All my friends lose their jobs because the place burns down. Yes, a lot of my friends work at the same place.

I plan a trip to CA. only for the plans to fall through, meaning now I can't go.

Then today....I find out that not only is my car registration suspended, but so is my license.

I had to pay $300. on the spot.

Now, I can't drive.

I could say that that things can't get worse...but I don't dare try and challenge that.

Oh, I had my license suspended before. I just hate that I can't go where I want to when I want to...like right now.

I know what to do, thank you zippoz.

300 isn't all. That was to keep me from getting arrested.

There will be more fines I'm sure.

if you cant find something positive about being alive, you arent trying hard enough. its real easy to lose sight when shit gets going rough. the positives are still there somewhere, hidden in the fog. try looking into your childrens eyes.

Good luck Desiree

Being alive IS the greatest blessing. Life is doing this to you for a reason. Karma is real, and I know you will survive. You will get through it, no matter how hard it is.
Just remember people here are wishing you the best, and you can always come to us with problems.
Let me know if I can help in ANYWAY. just PM me

Try paying over $4000.00 in classes, fines..probation charges, 2 years before then I had to deal with a Bankruptcy, which was almost just as bad.
I dont have a bad back, but I have bad luck with women and life in general ever since about the end of last century.
But hey, tat is nothing, I havent had a car in over 3.5 years now.
Cars are just something that eats your money away anyway.

They may be the only thing keeping me alive and okay. I don't wish I were dead or anything...it's just that things keep getting worse. I'm wondering when the hell everything is going to change.

I'm trying hard as hell right now to make things okay.

Hey, it is a rough period, for you...I am going through the same thing, It is getting better but slowly. I have a rough life lately too. I am here dont worry about it, I gave up almost 4 thousand dollars to keep from jail, and I live with my parents with the moment, because of all the shit I had to deal with myself..
I know the police is a legal gang, and they can get away with a lot of shit nowdays, they can get away with anything, dont ever trust the cops!

every one in life has there ups and downs, and you know that. your simply just having a lowpoint in your life. just have faith in how far you've gone and have faith in how far you can go. try to acknowledge that you've seen better days in the past, and if you keep working hard you will see better days in the future. its all in mind set. if your positively productive with your time, and you keep working hard every day to better yourself, your situations and your kids lives, then god will guide you the rest of the way.

the creator works in mysterious ways and you will be rewarded if you just keep trying to better your circumstances. this is just another way of gods way of conditioning you and shaping you into a better person, with challenges. things may be hard now, but if you just have courage to keep going you will be fine and things will work out

heres a few quotes to enlighten your spirts:
"on lifes journey, faith is nourishment
wisdom is the light by day, right-mindfulness is the protection by
night, if a man lives a pure life nothing can destroy him, if he has conquered greed nothing can limit his freedom"
-buddha

"hold your head up, there is a light in the sky, i know your fed up, but you must try to survive, each moments precious, dont let life pass you by keep focused keep you eyes on the prize"

"our greatest glory consists not in never falling, but rising everytime we fall"

"do not doubt your abilities, do not delay your worthy impressions. With gods help you cannot fail. He will give you the courage to participate in meaningful change and purposeful living"

most importantly

"the ideal man bears his accidents with dignity and grace, making the best of his circumstance"

i hope this gives you inspiration to keep lving a good life, becasue you only get one chance at this life, and rememeber, tommorow is never promised.


--------------------
"Life lived in the absence of the psychedelic experience that primordial shamanism is based on is life trivialized, life denied, life enslaved to the ego."

"You teach the world how to treat you, by showing the world how you treat yourself."

A well developed sense of humor is far superior to any religion"

"Everything you could want and could be, you already have and are."

Thank you everyone.

I plan a trip to CA. only for the plans to fall through, meaning now I can't go.

Then today....I find out that not only is my car registration suspended, but so is my license.

I had to pay $300. on the spot.

Now, I can't drive.

I could say that that things can't get worse...but I don't dare try and challenge that.





Poor Desiree...I hope things get better for yea hun..  :laugh:

What a f**king life it's been for me recently.

My house catches on fire.

I have to live in a crappy hotel with my kids.

I find out my favorite band is breaking up.

I find out I have the following:
Herniated disc
Bulging disc
Degenerative disc disease

Then, my house gets broken into.

My mother leaves town(I'm very close to my mom). :frown:

All my friends lose their jobs because the place burns down. Yes, a lot of my friends work at the same place.

I plan a trip to CA. only for the plans to fall through, meaning now I can't go.

Then today....I find out that not only is my car registration suspended, but so is my license.

I had to pay $300. on the spot.

Now, I can't drive.

I could say that that things can't get worse...but I don't dare try and challenge that.




In the christian faith, we have a term for times like those. We refer to it as "refiner's fire".

It's a metaphor relating to the process of refining metals. In order to purify metal ore, you need to subject it to extreme heat. The heat breaks down the pure metal, and it is reformed into something far more valuable than before.

This applies to life in that when we suffer at the hands of adversity, we come out of it being better people. Wisdom is bought through pain, discomfort, and perseverance.

Even without the context of christianity, that point does still apply.

Think of it not as pointless suffering, but as payment for the lessons you will learn in the interim. :sun:

I find your lack of faith disturbing

The secret to being funny is to say smart things stupidly, or is it stupid things smartly? Whatever..it's not rocket surgery...or something like that.
