"Life is too short."

Is it fresia.

Everybody says that life it too short. Why? Life is honeysuckle. Humans lie, steal and cheat one another. Nobody ever looks out for anybody else. Only themselves. Not only that but we have destroyed this planet and some of its wonderful creations of Mother Nature. But most of all, every day seems like an eternity of pure boredom with me just waiting until I feel tired enough to go back to sleep, only to awake to yet another brilliant and amazing day of pure boredom. Imagine if I lived to be eighty or even one hundred (That's 21,549.75 days - 30,078.75 days. WHAT THE fresia! I really don't know how much more I can take of this honeysuckle we call Life. I can't even begin to imagine another thirty thousand days of solid bordom. The sooner we all blow ouselves up the better!

You said yourself that mother nature is a wonderful creation. I'm studying in science, next: ecology/vegetal biology/horticulture, whatever is about plants/trees/flowers and will work outside with them.

I'm saying this because, grab a book and go read under a tree. It'll make your life less boring.

WOW, just WOW!
That's exactly how I feel about people and our beautiful planet.
Everyone talks a big game, "enjoy life, life is beautiful..." and a plethora of other cute, wise, "deep" meaningful sayings, yet, they turn around and act like idiots, are very selfish and could give two craps about the environment as a whole, animals included of course.

Great vent, so true.

Thanks for your comment. Yes you're definatly right, "We're all Human and nobody's perfect" Maybe not, but you could at least try to be. And most people would say that we're the superior species and that we're civilized. Have you not seen what people will do to other people? Just because they can, or to push themselves ahead. And then, what we do to animals is horrible and disgraceful. Humans are animals too. I'm just disgusted in mankind.

Some people can be like this, yes. But there are a lot of people who also think the former and are actually good, caring people. I don't think I can ever lose faith as long as there are people like this out there.

Too cynical for my taste. Life has its ups and downs, but it's never ever boring.

I agree with you on fact that we are animals and we shouldn't feel superior. Did you watch instinct (1999) with Anthony Hopkins?

Well, if you don't like reading, find something else. But if you are really enjoying mother nature creation, choose an activity about nature. Personally, at school, my 2 favorite classes are hiking and forest orientation =) =) =).

If you see life through honeysuckle colored glasses, all you ever see is honeysuckle.

I agree to a very small degree, because, there is something (a hypothesis) called "Depressive Realism".
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depressive_realism
ie:
We're destroying the planet at an alarming rate > bothers me to no end
We're killing off animals for stupid reasons (aphrodisiac claims, other silly health benefits) > bothers me to no end.
Wars, there are plenty non-stop (a lot in the name of RELIGION) > really? Wtf?



While many of us can see things a certain way and think/see that the world is good, the reality, really, tells us a different story.
It's one of the reasons I don't watch the news too much or read the paper.
I was a political junkie during the Clinton era (and I'm from Canada), because of CNN. However, lately, the news really covers depressing, heavy stuff, wars, beheadings, more wars, diseases, Kim Kardashian, etc, etc. I
They play off of our fears and the majority of people's ignorance, all for the almighty dollar (advertising).

A large portion of people in North America have issues when they're more interested in what Kim Kardashian, Lady GaGa, Justin Bieber are doing (via Twitter or Instagram). Maybe because I'm getting older, but on the flipside, the reason I was so intersted in politics years ago, was because I wanted to see what was going on with our world > planet > environment/animals.

We're just royally ******* things right up to a degree from which it can never be recovered. Yet as Omnipotent Soul said, we claim to be "civilized", really??


It's very sad, makes me upset that we're so incredibly ignorant and stupid.

I don't see things getting for the better with the exponential population growth, or land mass staying the same if not getting smaller.

People inherently suck and are terribly selfish.

They think that having the most toys, the latest gadgets, etc, will somehow improve their lives and make them feel better about who they are, man are they wrong. In this process of wanting and needing, they forget to literally enjoy the surroundings around us (minus anything that's grey - buildings, sidwalks, etc).

Anyways, I'm done. Useless to discuss because things are going to honeysuckle and there's no stopping it sadly.

I understand what you're saying. I've been thinking like that too, a couple of years ago. However, why do you care what other people do? What does that have to do with your boredom? You cannot change other people through direct means, however you can change yourself. Let me tell you that thinking about how messed up this world is, will not alleviate your boredom.

I know the times are difficult, in so many ways, for most all of us. I know it seems that people are more selfish and dishonest than ever before. It's not easy to keep an upbeat attitude with what we read in the papers, see on the news, and have to put up with in real life on a daily basis, especially if we have no close friends to really share with who can understand our deepest concerns or desires.

If we start where we are, though, maybe just doing one small thing for someone else, our boredom may begin to fade and we'll begin to become more excited about life.

And Omni, we would love for you to attend our ALL Forum Party, right here on the Forum, on Sept. 22 -23. We can all dance the night away and listen to our favourite music and have some fun.

The beautiful Ladyforsaken has generously offered to bring some items for us, and oh my, to say we're in for a treat is a complete understatement. Her desserts are nothing less than divine, heavenly perfection on a plate. I'm bringing some onion rings and chilli dogs for all of us, so perhaps if we all ate them at once, the world might indeed blow up?

Please do join us and forget your cares for awhile.

I have the same point of view, and although there is strong opinion that one person "can" make changes in our world, I don't buy it. I decided that instead of letting society, the media and world strife in general make my own life hell, that I would withdraw, lead a simple life, and do my own thing. I have good values and am a good person, but I'm not my brother's keeper anymore, I wasted too much energy on that and all it got me was dissatisfaction, sadness and anxiety. I wouldn't say I've become a hermit or apathetic to the horrors in our society, but I prefer to concentrate on what's going on inside my home instead of other people's. It's the only way I can stay sane and happy.

Thank you all for your comments.

ladyforsaken - I know some people say that some people are nice and truthful, but I don't think I've ever met anyone like that. Everybody usually just takes my kindness for granted and when I need something It's a no.

Case - Again, I don't think I've ever met anyone like that. Everybody usually just takes my kindness for granted and when I need something It's a no. And yes life does have its ups and downs, there are days I feel only slightly bored and others where I'm very bored. Still, I am always bored.

Damrod - No sorry I've never seen it. I don't particularly "enjoy" nature. But we shouldn't destroy it.

Ymir - True I guess, but I don't wear glasses.

1andonly1 - Yes we have just destroyed everything.

Rosebolt - Yes I sort of done two posts in one about how honeysuckle life is, in general and my personal life.

Ruthie - Sorry if I literally have to go somewhere I won't make it. And just make sure you don't blow up the toilet.

Pike creek - Yes I do my own thing but I'm very bored of it.

Well I'm sorry that you haven't met me yet because I wouldn't take someone's kindness for granted and I'm sure a lot of people on this forum I have known wouldn't do such a thing either and we would be more than glad to help when it is required by someone else.

Sucks that you haven't met the good, truthful people. There are present though, definitely. Don't give up on these people yet, though.

The Life is ephemeral
