You don't have to live this way

What comes to your mind when you read the title?

I have to think about all the ways how I torture myself with expectations and other negative ways of thinking.

 I feel similar to how you posted.  Negativity, self-destruction....I definitely wish to stop the addictions, television, work, and other bullshit obstructing my daily peace.  Sometimes I wanna just drop everything and live in a log cabin in the woods without power, without internet....just my dog and my guns and myself.  

Good post.

Ever growing expectations and obligations. Fear of failure.

My first thought is: what way? 

I don't think that how I am living or who I am is wrong in anyway shape or form

I don't say that to myself. Ever.

Anything about my life that I don't/ didn't like was an unfortunate accident of circumstances beyond my control. I've still gone above and beyond to assess what I just have to accept and what's worth beating the crap out of myself to correct.

I've corrected a good number of unfortunate things about my life that came as a result of other people's fuckups, and I've abandoned the assholes that made the bullshit happen.

There are a few more things that are still a work in progress.

I'll let you know when I achieve every one of my remaining goals. ;)

 

A good number of uppity nosey bitches have said those words about my housekeeping. I tell them all to fuck off and die bc they don't pay my rent. lol

Good post.

I just assumed that you were trolling someone, or possibly attempting to troll the whole board by offering us all the cure of religion or spirituality.

I like the amount of freedom I've got, so I don't see any reason to change the way I'm living, and I certainly don't see any reason to judge the way other people are living their lives.

How a person chooses to live is entirely up to them.

When I had originally read this thread's title, I thought there was going to be some sort of monologue about how people can better themselves. I can't really give answers comparable to other ones I see here. The best I can do is quote Tiny Tim.

"I'm so happy!
Aha! Happy go lucky me!
I just go my way,
Living everyday!"

"I don't worry!
Worrying don't agree,
Things that bother you,
Never bother me!"
