It's a hard life.
Some people have nothing but trouble & strife.
You've got to keep going though no matter what you've gone through.
Unless you write your life story though the subject is taboo.
Some people have always had an easy life & good look.
To stop themselves from crumbling though some people have always had to take their refuge in a book.
It doesn't matter whether you've been bullied all your life & in some workplaces too, people still expect you to smile.
You can also have had to go through seeing people you love suffer from cancer & die after a while.
It's especially bad if you've had to look after others at the same time as for them you've got to stay strong.
1 good way of coping is by singing Bette Midler's the rose, people like your voice & sing along.
It's not nice to have an Aunt die of a stroke.
It's even worse when you're in a café & an old man is having 1 & no one listens to you when you're telling them what to tell the paramedics on the phone & no one believes you. You find out later you were right when you're talking to the old bloke.
It's not nice seeing someone having a fit.
The sight when seen for the 1st time really hits.
There's only so much a person can take.
Society sees you as an idiot though if you break.
It doesn't matter what you're capable of, this idea is wide-spread.
If you aren't happy, no matter what you've been through you're off your head.
Then people wonder why others think they'd be better off dead.
You've got an over-critical father who insults everyone & causes an argument every day.
Then people wonder why you don't want to speak out, laugh, sing & play.
You always have to be wrong & Father always has to be right.
If he isn't he always starts a fight.
The news today is mostly very bad.
Then people wonder why you're sad.
No wonder why this world is full of rage.
It's nice to be someone else for a few hours either by reading a book or being on a stage.
A lot of people judge others too quickly before finding out why they are like they are.
A lot of people are held back by these thoughts, feelings & experiences who could have gone far.
I think people should be a lot more understanding to others.
I think Fathers should be nicer to daughters & Mothers.
There are that many celebrities who people were brought up with dying.
There aren't many news stories today that don't have you crying.
There have been so many people I've known forever who've recently died.
I should be able to weep but there are no tears left after all the tears I've cried.
You've still got to plod on to the end of the road.
You've got to keep going with your heavy load.
All the self-analysis you have to do in self-esteem, confidence-building & assertiveness classes only makes you see your flaws more.
C.B.T. is less helpful than the 3 classes mentioned above & only cover the same content, if not less especially if you did the classes before.
Fluoxetine only makes you worse as it makes you fat.
It doesn't even work when it's circumstances that have made you feel like that.
If you're different no matter what you do, you don't have many friends.
Like I said before, for some people trouble & strife never ends.
Not many people realise that people with the learning style of only having to be told or shown something once or read something once & be able to do it straight away makes them more prone to emotional difficulties as they take everything in before they get a chance to think about things & have difficulty forgetting things.
Not many people realise that creative people are more prone to emotional difficulties either. Famous creative people who suffered from depression are Charlotte Bronte & Charles Dickens.
If you say how you really feel people think you're an attention-seeker or are only out for sympathy which isn't true.
Sometimes you wish people could see inside your head so that they'd realise how their behaviour affects you & they could also see the real you.
In some ways this wouldn't be good though.
All your private information this would show.
Sometimes you wish you couldn't understand anything.
This would ease all the emotional pain & suffering.
I find it helps to express myself in rhyme.
You can say what you really feel any time.
Poets express feelings in most of what they write.
They can do that when talking to others wouldn't be right.
