Next time you are feeling down on your luck, consider this weeks events:



people went to a nightclub in Chicago and got stampeded to death.

other people went to hear a band from the 80's, fire broke out, and they

also died, almost 100 people.

A family sells thier house to afford a operation for thier daughter, she

gets the wrong blood type organs, and ends up dying.



And yesturday as its pouring rain I see a man in a wheelchair pushing himself along with 1 leg, and 1 arm, he is missing one leg, and his other arm is paralized, he doesnt even have a electric chair and is pushing his way home with a bag of groceries ( I have seen this man before by the way )



So today I am thankfull for who I am, and what I have.

that is why i refuse to actually complain about my situation with court.



kevin.,

I forgot to add there are people our age and younger sitting

in the Persian Gulf waiting to fight a war.

Amen to that Rob

I agree rob. Life could be a hole hell of a lot worse. Makes me feel bad for bitchin about the small stuff when it doesnt' matter. Life's a gift. Don't throw it away. You never know.............

if you can afford to eat more than once a day...you have it better than me

good call mang

we're rather equal then



kevin.

I was thinking that, damn i have life so easy its unreal.

Great words. Yea, I should be alot more thankful than I am..

I rarely bitch, It could all go wrong so easily.

But it sucks that you have to watch so many other people suffer to realize it!

i measure my success by the diffrence between my suffering and others. Im not too sucessful.

You should measure your success by what you gave up to achieve it. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/cool.png

The simple fact that we are even able to read this thread shows how fortunate we are. There are plenty of people with no internet, no power, no food, and no hope. Every day, I look forward to the ups and the downs of life, knowing that no matter how bad things seem, there are millions upon millions of other people in the world in much worse conditions than me.

I am thankful for the air in my lungs everytime I wake up.

I am always very aware how fragile life really is.

I know alot of dead people. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub..._DIR#>/sad.png

Damn Straight. I usally think about this sort of thing when I go on a long trip. It just makes me realise how big the world is and I am just one tiny drop in the ocean. So my problems don't seem so big anymore...

Well put.

this thread has such.... depth. Never seen that on the internet before, but hey we are saving manatees so NoPistons is sorta a "deep" kinda place. THe commie forum never does this kinda **** https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png



Phins next time can we rent kids from somalia or something?



kevin.

think how lucky we are to own cars, a lot of the worlds population is starving for food, and we are out spending thousands on turbos and ems....

an amazing society we live in isn't it?

ya then some people bitch about the goverment etc, ungrateful b@stards.

wow that kinda makes me not feel so bad about my right hand being screwed up and me maybe having to change careers becuase of it.

i have it pretty good, but i'm basically just getting done with putting all the peices back together
