Have you ever had days where you just sit and think to yourself "Why do I bother?" I have been having those days the past few days and its depressing. I try not to dwell on it and I try to think of it as "things happen for a reason" or "If its meant to be..." but I just can't shake it off. Maybe its the rain we have been having the past 3 days straight I don't know but just have some stuff on my mind the past few weeks I guess and the past few days have just sat and actualy thought about it some more.

Sorry if I don't make any sense and for rambling. Its just eating away at me and I thought it would be a good post I guess. Dunno.

Thanks Dreamer :)
I just hate being down. I know we all get that way from time to time and I guess lack of sleep dosn't help either.

Just going through a sort of a confusing time here and don't know what to think but I am sure I will get some sort of a sign at some point.

Now I should go to bed. lol Its past midnight here and I totaly forgot my son goes to school in the morning Oye lol

There isn't a person alive that hasn't felt that way. Neat thing is, life is ever changing, never stays in one place. Just wait it out sweets, you never know what today will bring.

I always bother, If one don´t bother, one might as well be in a coffin. If none bothered, veryone would have sore noses from bumping in to each other on the street.
Every one bothers, one has to meet the right person at the right time to connect botherings. Am I making sence or shouldn´t I have bothered?

We can all be Eeyore sometimes....

Cry and be sad, so others can remember that we need to take care of each other.





Think of others, act for others, be kind and act....

Time is the perfect healer in such situations. And best thing is to ignore it, because later on you will realize it wasnt worth thinking about it. I know what you are saying. When I went through a surprise divorce, I wasted myself for 3 months, just focused on her all the time. Then after 3 months I was like why did I think about it so much. But I guess time was also a healing factor for me. My advice is keep on doing what you do, it will be in your mind and with time it will go away. Hope this helps.

You are completely NOT alone in that. I wish I could say something to make you feel better. You are not rambling and you DO make sense.

Everyone gets those stretches of time where they feel down. Everyone needs to feel they have purpose and are needed. To answer you better, I read your profile and see that you have two beautiful children. They need you and love you. They need to see a mom who they can come to, and not be afraid they will burden you.

I'm a single mom too, and when I feel like that, and I don't have to work that day, I stay in my bedroom with the dark curtains drawn and get up for necessities, take care of my mother. It doesn't really help me, but I don't know what else to do. But before my son comes home from school, I get up so he doesn't see me sad. Think of your little ones.
