Your life will treat you like you treat it, so be gentle. Just be easy on yourself tonight, don't get wrapped up in hating shit, it only makes things worse. Tomorrow, before you start this whole I hate life tirade again, make a list of things in your life that are currently bothering you. Everything, big and small.
Identify the ones you can't to anything about. Have the balls to accept them. Everyone gets a bag of hammers in life and those are the ones you got. Fine. Decide not to waste a moment of your life getting pissed off at those things, wishing it wasn't like that. That's something a child would do, time to grow out of it. Then cross those items off the list.
Then look at the things you can do something about. Pick a few and write down a some actions you can take, today, to make those situations better. Stand up and go do one. Immediately. Pick small ones at first, then when you have some momentum, tackle a medium or big one. Keep moving, don't get stuck wishing you didn't have any problems, or blaming people for creating these problems for you. Wishing and hating are deathtraps. When you start to get pissed off, act. Do something to make your situation better.
Keep going back to the list. Attack the corners, and your problems will shrink. Respect yourself enough to keep making things better, the 'fuck life' state of mind is the lowest form of existence; you owe yourself more than that. But nobody else owes you a damn thing. Understand this and you'll be fine.
OP, listen to this man and listen well. Great post, WC/JC.
