The quote you are your own worst enemy comes to mind when I think of people on Reddit, Lemmy, and in society overall if I am being honest. People are so emo, sappy, melancholy, cynical, and pessimistic.

So the picture attached to this post says it all. This guy says real life is boring. i disagree because life ISN’T boring, if you actually live it, have hobbies, enjoy learning, creating and well not being someone with a defeatist mindset.

Look how many dislikes I got for saying LIFE ISN’T BORING lol this right here is the problem. most of these people are so toxic and they have nothing else to do but bring their toxicity to things around them.

If your life is boring, it’s because you are living in a manner that isn’t enjoyable to you. Quit your shitty job and find a better one. Move to a different area if your current area it’s not pleasurable to you. Find a higher quality group of friends or become someone that can enjoy their own company. I could keep listening, but I’m not going to make this thread too long.

I’m just telling you what i find mildly infurating. The thread comments will further prove my point more than likely. Prove me wrong.

    That line shows a lack of experience. I find happy moments in life, but it’s certainly not all sunshine and rainbows. I’m currently living my life for the betterment of my family, to provide for them. I have to work a job I hate and I given up most of my free time for them. Do I hate them for it, absolutely not. Do I struggle mentally because of it, certainly.

    I can’t move because I can’t afford to find a home where I can move my family to. My mom lives with us, which makes it more complicated. Not easy to move from a low cost area to anywhere else and find the same space typically beyond my means.

    I can’t switch jobs, because I’d have to take almost a 25% to 50% cut in pay to do what “I want” which is a big hit when you’re just getting by already. I stick with it and keep it mentally as a thing I have to do to provide for others.

    I question this every now and than and my own well being is less than those around me. Sucks a lot, I make the best of it. Let me be negative about life it’s one outlet I have left, I keep myself going by taking my suffering and altering it into a form of dark humor to lessen the blow of reality.

    If you are able to do whatever you want when you want I envy your youth or your solidarity. You’ve obviously not had to make a sacrifice yet or you have been very fortunate. Don’t punch down at people who can’t make those choices.
