i am pessimistic  

[dew7]

I am optimistic because I beat cancer!      

[Jeysie]

I'm a... well, I don't know what the term would be. I always anticipate the worst and try to prepare for it. Most of the time I'm pleasantly surprised and it doesn't happen, but if it does I'm not caught off-guard.

Dew, I have to admit that, ironically enough, dealing with someone else's cancer is what caused me to lose my own faith and optimism (I'm honestly not sure I ever had any faith, but I did used to be a lot more optimistic). If you feel you want details, PM me.

Peace & Luv, Liz

Mostly because normal people have things like social lives, significant others, and decent jobs... while I spend my mornings as a file clerk in an office where nothing works, and then I spend the rest of the day at home alone on my computer.

What's so bad about that? this is pretty much the life I'm trying for - except for the file clerk part, but right now I'll be more than happy to settle for that

I know I'm far more lucky than many other people and have no right to complain about my life, but I always do anyways. My problems always seem bigger than everyone else's simply because I'm the one who has to deal with them, so I do endulge myself and wallow in self-pity from time to time

Being a file clerk isn't bad... although with everyone always claiming I'm smart, I feel guilty about not doing "better", I guess. The place I work in is frustrating, though.

Being alone on my computer definitely sucks... I wish I had somewhere to go, or someone to hang out with.

I agree on the "I'm lucky" part. My life isn't really bad... just kind of empty.

Peace & Luv, Liz

I am pessimistic because of past experiences

[dew7]

Well, I am leaving now for vacation and my posts will be nonexistent or limited for the next three weeks.  If anyone asks pass the word.  I am oatta here!  

[B'rrr]

have a nice vacation Dew!!

I used to feel that way too... but then when I went places or hang out with people I usually wished I was sitting alone by my computer. Guess I'm not cut out for socializing

Get a dog. That way you wont always be at the computer and you wont ever be alone. Problem solved   Although for some reason i seem to think you're allergic to dogs...i may be remembering someone else though.

I'm not allergic to dogs... but I'm not very comfortable around them, either.

Well im not exactly at ease round them either but if you had your own it would see you as "mama" and love and adore you and never ask for anything in return ('part from food and walks of course). I plan on getting one the minute i move out. That and a hefty loan too.

[Jeysie]

Well, I already have a cat who gives me love and rubs... and I don't even have to walk him!

Ok, ok I think this kinda fits in to this thread...
I'er got one unexplainable thing that everyone lives through every day...
Time.
Seriously, someone explain time to me.
There is absolutely no concrete explination for time.

[Kimmie]

and time slips!

but ur right..what is time, i know science has its explanations but science can be wrong. its only scienftic until proved otherwise. we label time with numbers, dates etc but its weird thinking about it, oh thanx very much now im on a loop in my brain, just like what came first the chicken or the egg...

[Kimmie]

in response to neils long post i had something relevant..an example, but since my exams i flushed that knowledge out of my brain if i look at my notes and find it at any point i will add it in...but i doubt it!  

anyway...what about   love  

love is an unexplained thing that i believe in. its different 4 every1 and yet most of us experience it at some point in our lives.
there's love between a couple, one sided love, love for a friend, love for a child, love for a pet, love for chocolate etc

[racx_00]

I dont know if love is good or bad , it has its rewards but it also has its down points

[Kimmie]

yup, like most things in life i guess

[InvertedSilence]

Well the scientific explination would be that love is our societal definition for the primitive sexual urges brought on by ones hormones.
But, come on, how unromantic is that!
Personally I think love can pretty much be summed up by this little guy.

Downs are it can cause you some of the worse pain you have ever felt in your life, but i think when its good the pain that can come from it is worth that feeling you have when its good.
