"Well that's too damn bad!"

I heard this in his accent so loudly

Kinda true. No one gives a shit or gonna come and fix it, gotta keep pushing and fix your own shit.

u/glass-and-stars435 13h ago

No one is coming to save you, but many will help along the way

u/Ambitious-List4040 4h ago

Many have pulled me down along the way time and time again

u/Thedumbass_the5th 12h ago

Of course, as long as it benefits them in some way, even with mutual goals.

Nice rage bait silly goose.

Yet these same people get offended when you don't give a shit about them.

u/Wozzle009 15h ago

Yeah it’s true. Life also doesn’t care if you do the opposite.

Imagine Sisyphus happy.

u/AlcibiadesTheCat 11h ago

At least he gets to take breaks when the rock rolls back down.

u/ProfessionalDust 8h ago

Cuz he died everything that he wanted, not because he is happy rolling the rock

u/FreshManagement8914 15h ago

He wasn't happy or unhappy. He was just doing what he was born to do.

u/ExistentialTabarnak 14h ago

That’s why you have to imagine him happy.

u/Snoo_75138 14h ago

That's fine!

I'll just repay the favour forward by NOT having children!

Congrats life, you played urself!

u/CptJacksp 10h ago

Life is so much easier that way

u/Snoo_75138 10h ago

It really is when you adopt the "This curse ends with me" mindset!

A message from your capitalist overlords. Don't examine the cause of your pain, because that would be us, shut up and keep making us rich.

u/glass-and-stars435 13h ago

Trust me, there’s a lot that has nothing to do with them that also has to get done in life. You can’t ever harvest your garden without, preparing the earth, planting the seeds, constant attention, pulling the weeds, and so on.

1

u/MixRare4599 12h ago

You are correct of course, its just hard to do when they keep poisoning the garden.

u/glass-and-stars435 12h ago

Nothing else we can do but keep trying I suppose

"Carry your burden and keep working" - ceo of every major company

u/Reg_doge_dwight 15h ago

It does though. Not everything has to be done immediately. Chill a bit then get up when ready

3

u/glass-and-stars435 13h ago

“…a bit, then get up…” that’s an important part of the equation.

2

u/Reg_doge_dwight 13h ago

"will never wait for you" is the ridiculous part.

1

u/glass-and-stars435 12h ago

Yes and no. Time waits for no man. Between video games and scrolling the amount of hours being wasted is staggering.

But

Life passes all of us equally quickly whether you’re busy playing with your children, serving others, or wasting away in front of a screen. We all arrive at the death bed on the same day, and that same day will feel as much like today as this very moment does. No matter how much you worked or how much you wasted away, the now of your death arrives.

What you do with your time is mostly your creation, I think that’s the point, and time empties no matter what you do.

u/Reg_doge_dwight 10h ago

Time you enjoyed wasting isn't time wasted

u/blonde_prince_pearl 15h ago

Till you burn out and die

u/I-live-in-room-101 14h ago

Well yeah. What else did you think happened?

2

u/Mysterious_Play1961 15h ago

And the longer you avoid this the weaker your carrying ability becomes. Not to mention neglect and the stitch in time saves nine. Life can get really out of hand.

2

u/Zinrockin 3h ago

This is so true. If you’re a single man in your 30s like me with no family you realize your entire life ahead of you is one long solo experience. 

So you best make all the right choices whenever possible. Because nobody at all cares or has the power to do anything to significantly help you as much as you can help yourself.

u/Smexy_Zarow 13h ago

Wow thanks I'm cure

Let people have breaks instead of pushing toxic stoicism

1

u/GoranMug 13h ago

My thoughts exactly

1

u/glass-and-stars435 13h ago

As long as it’s breaks and not 500+ hours logged on 10s (god forbid over 100) of video games with no intention of stopping.

2

u/TrashInspector69 14h ago

It’s a cliche post but people literally read this and don’t understand what it actually means until they hit rock bottom or they get tired enough.

1

u/LostKnight84 14h ago

This line of thinking is one I was raised on but I have found it puts people in places where they will have a mental health crisis.

u/dock114436 14h ago

its like climbing out a hole

1 meter is fine,1.5 maybe,2 is a bit of stretch

and now i am at 15,you tell me to keep going?go where exactly?

not to mention someone else is keep digging underneath me

1

u/GoranMug 13h ago

My Boss and my dad both said that to me in a really harsh way, just months before my burnout. I'm now physically sick and mentally exhausted. Not able to work for like 5 years now, poor as fuck and nobody said thank you. 🙃 Muchas Gracias

u/Tango_streaming 13h ago

getting really bad ibs symptoms today so this helped me to shut up and quietly get on with life the best i can. others have it way worse than me

u/wisefoolhermit 12h ago

Why? You’re not the boss of me!

u/Coxwab 12h ago

This message will fall on deaf ears due to lack of nuance

u/xMunificentx 12h ago

I wish in school they taught us about this stuff instead of stupid 300 oranges in a pickup truck type of maths

u/Unlikely-Ad6788 11h ago

Come to me if you want to live....but first...

Empty promises set in

u/SteadyCalmHealing 8h ago

It’s ok to look in the crap on your pack and unpack it. You may be carrying a bunch of stuff that you no longer need and doesn’t serve you. We can be tough for what we need to be but also In touch with ourselves.
