why bother
even if you had the most important job in the world- it does not really mean anything.
life is sent to give us hell, that's what i believe

I really don't mean this to be mean or upsetting, but maybe if you believe that life is sent to give you hell then that is what you will experience.. untill you decide otherwise. I think our minds are very powerful, and we create how we experience life. If we want something different we might have to create it as well. All I mean is that our perception impacts us and our experiences in a big way. If all we see percieve is suffering then maybe that is all we will feel. I think we play a big role in this, but we are not exactly taught how to be otherwise. But we can find it, we can create other experiences even out of old experiences.. I think that's pretty cool.
I guess to me I see it as why not bother? We are here now.
