2006 was, or is for another hour, a shoddy year. My body is still akin to that of a pencil, I still look and act like a fool, my mum is going through chemo and my heart was/is broken.

 

The world is tearing itself apart: certain people's deaths are celebrated, others are mourned, the environment is in a worse state than ever, while our governments are lying and spreading the very terror they wish to eradicate. And, of course, stupid, rich celebrities are spending their money on pointless trinkets while little African children are dying of hunger.

 

For the first time in my life I find the idea of getting drunk beyond belief quite appealing. I think I might go and do that now and forget about the world.

 

So, I hope 2007 is a happy one for me and everyone on here. May you have health, love and all the succes you want.

 

 

Pointless, depressing rant over. Happy new year :)

That was absolutely not pointless, Mo. I totally agree with you.

 

And yes, Happy New Year. :)

Also agree with you Mo..good riddance to 2006!!!!

Thanks guys. Just felt like letting it all out.

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww....Mo I hope so much for you that 2007 is going to be a better one for you and the world (although I doubt the second to be honest-......) but at least it could be for you....I hope your mum will get healthy soon and your heart will be repaired as well really soon.....:kiss:

 

You know.....I watched this german film the other day (and attention....this could not really fit to this topic now...)....there were two men having a dialogue.....and the one said to the other: "If you can't change the world.....try to change at least your world!"....you know this may be random now but this sentence was stuck in my head.....I often think about this one sentence....it has a meaning for me....a special one....probably because when this man said it I had to agree with him.....maybe this sentence is not even that special but for me it is...so thought about this immediately when I read your first post-----I don't really know why though....

probably this happened because first you talked about your personal problems and then about the world's problems......

I know that you can't change everything bad that happens to you in life (like your mum being ill......) it's most of the time a matter of destiny.....but we can't change the world either.....in most of the cases.......

 

 

 

wow this is so random now......but somehow I felt like saying it....you know I just came back from a new year's party....it was quite nice......but I think this year was the first year that I really thought about my future and the next year at midnight.....I never did that before....I just thought then "let's say goodbye to the old year and hi to the new one..." but never really thought about that....

maybe that's why I wanted to say this now......I can understand you and your mood you were in when you wrote that----

 

and again.....what I can say is:

 

I wish you health, luck, love, friends and happiness in the year 2007.....:kiss:

Aww, thanks Jules :kiss:

 

I was really very sad last night and that just sort of came out. Still, a chance to start over new and look to a better future :)

Aww, thanks Jules :kiss:

Somehow I could see in your first post how sad you were.....so you were alone at NYE?

 

Yeah I think you should look to a better future.....that would be just the right thing....I think if you look rather to a sad future everything will even become worse......maybe not really but in your mind and your own world.....;)

I wasn't really alone, I went out with some friends to a little place on the Nile which was very nice and helped me feel better. That was very late though, about 1 am I think.

Oh so you went the new year arrived yet?

 

You know I can totally understand you.......when you were alone before you have enough time to think.....and mostly you think of the bad things of the last year then....I think it was the same with me last year......I looked out of the window ......saw some people partying....that made me think and feel sad somehow...

 

I'm glad the evening ended better for you then as it began-........;)

Yeah, I'd gone after the new year! :lol: But it certainly made me feel better when I got the call from my friends.

 

I guess when you're on your own, you think negatively? :\

awwwww....so at least something good happened...;)

 

Yeah I think that's natural somehow,....because the bad things are the ones that occupy you.....if there are only good things happening in your life you don't really think of them....you just take them as a matter of fact and feel good and content with yourself.....

 

you know.......the year 2005 was a bad one for me....not because anything special happened but because I felt bad......I used to think a lot about many things....which made me feel depressed most of the time....last year I changed that attitude.....I don't think so much about everything that happens to me anymore.....I rather want to see the good things in life.....and that changed my attitude towards life and my mental state.....I don't think I once felt as bad last year as I did almost everyday in 2005.....then it could have happened that I started crying and didn't even know why....only because of thinking too much....

that didn't happen to me last year.....

 

you know all those things you've listed there.....I have gone through this as well ( except for this thing with your mum....)......2005 is always my best example for a bad year.......I also thought I look and act like a fool.....my heart was broken several times as well.....and those things made me think a lot and made me feel bad.......but since I changed my habit of thinking I feel a whole bunch better......and those things are not as bad anymore as they once seemed to be....you know some weeks ago my heart was broken a bit too......I saw this as a sad thing......but somehow looked forward without really feeling that bad about it....

 

I think there we are again with this "change your own world thing"........I find it interesting how the world can change for you if you change only one little thing in your life......

 

 

weeeee I talk a lot.....

awwwww....so at least something good happened...;)

Yup!!:P

Hehe, but you talk sense Jules :nice:

 

I'm going to try to forget and move on. I'm still young and have, hopefully, a long life ahead of me, I should remember that.

heheh thanks.....:nice:

 

Yeah that's what I think as well.....;)

 

although you sometimes think that life is happening so fast....but when i think of the world's situation........when I read in a newspaper in former times that the situation of the environment is getting worse everyday it used to made me think a lot.....I even got a bit into panic......nowadays I just think "oh that is normal.....a sad but I can't really change it".....and it had never really affected me....life still goes on....probably I can think like that because I live at a place where usually nothing bad happens....almost no crimes....no nature catastrophes....etc....

 

so I guess life in a big city must be totally different in case of environmental changes and economical changes...
