you gatta do what you gatta do, and don't feel bad for firing people because nobody would give a shit about firing you, those workers should be thankful for having work while being employed by you... if you sellout to your business partners for nothing, what makes you think they will not fire people anyways? also it's apparent your biggest issue is getting dumped by a woman, that will take time to heal (most people went through that including myself) so there's no point crying about it because nothing will change, you only put yourself in a bad mood.... and I do agree with you how money don't really mean much, but what good is it to not have any money and work a dead job every single day for the rest of your life living paycheck to paycheck, like most people do... money gets you insurance/security in life and it sure does make life better... one more thing (it took me some time to get this over years), be thankful you're healthy and do not take that for granted, you should be happy in life just based on that alone, some people go through some crazy shit
I'm fucking tired. I've had enough of this. Fuck this.

Don't throw in the towel just yet, you are wearing thin but you are far from finished. Remember, life is not just about happiness and security, its also about building character from struggle and then customarily passing that knowledge down to a younger person. This how we survive from generation to generation.
As a youth I remember complaining to a Family member that it was too cold in the house, they told me to step OUTSIDE for a few minutes and it wouldn't seem so cold inside anymore. Made me appreciate what I was blessed with
If you just keep fighting, something has to give, either your sanity or your bad luck but atleast you will still be in the game. Stay focused -

I'd think seriously of taking up gaming in a big way.
live cheap, no need for a big house or apartment to impress anyone, that is all just a waste, and money itself doesn't mean shit in the broad scope, as long as you have your basic needs so you don't have to stress, and have a set up where people will leave you alone and you don't have to worry about people bugging you or your safety, then you are all set with all you really need...... take the pressure off, the internet is a big place, and there are not enough hours in the day to really take advantage of even a small fraction.
good luck man, keep perspective, no other person can ever make someone happy, you have to be happy for yourself, stop stressing about stuff that doesn't really matter, revel in your freedom and enjoy

this is a pretty interesting idea. The problem with the "western" culture is that we forget how hard life can be.Brother, you need a reality check.
We've all been down and out at some point in our lives. Be it depression or just in a slump for the time being.
My suggestions:
1) Take a week and visit Cambodia or parts of Africa. Visit the garbage dumps where 1000s of people live and eat right out of the trash. Go see real misery.
Then...
2) Take another week or two and go on a nice vacation. Go do something NEW and outside of your security blanket. Try something new. Find a new hobby. Do something dangerous that makes you feel alive. Reflect on the real misery you have seen and allow yourself to see that whatever you are going through at this moment is nothing and you have it made.
You have taken your life for granted and it's time for a dose of reality to get you back on track.

Been through all this before. i was on the edge of pulling the trigger. guess it was the edge of sanity also.
Then i went back - all the way back. to my roots, my family, even my culture and where i came from, and started climbing back. it was fucking long, and hard, and i even lost some friends in the process - but believe me it made me a better person.
And it will make you a better man as well, sure as anything.
Hang on there bud.Comment

wow man, how did you keep yourself off from killing her on the spot?i woke up at twelve today... then I went back to sleep. Couldn't sleep however and decided to wake up again.

She got pregnant by another guy and I now have the house, my daughter 50/50, and...
I've been sad... but one of these days I think I'm gonna go out and meet some neighbors or something.Comment

Uuhh... ?? Where in Europe, actually? 8 hours day where I live
Anyways.... 7 years ago I hit the wall. Still hanging on that wall, but at least not hanging from a three... And now I am happy for that! I am still not "happy" , but I am slowly starting to enjoy life again, wanting to work and seeing the reasons for doing so! I think you will to!
Life is actually quite nice, just got to put aside time to enjoy it from time to time!Comment

I don't really see the appeal or reasoning behind the ideas to go to third world countries, see people dying of hunger on the streets so that when you come back, you might feel better about yourself.
Actually, this might work, but it's not the right attitude IMO.
In my opinion, if you're not happy with your life, you should take measures to make it better. Yes, it's doable for sure. You just need to set goals, and realize what things are the most important for you in the bigger picture of things.
Comparing your self to these unfortunate third world people doesn't solve your own problems and frustrations.
This is similar to business..... when someone says he's happy with his $4k per month because it beats his old losers from highscholl achievements, people here usually jump at him and tell him to compare himself with those above him and aim to reach their level... Ok, might be not the best analogy, but you get it...
So don't look at those who have it worse than you to feel better about yourself.
Just look at what you want to achieve and try to get into direction.
It's hard, but ultimatelly life is what you make of it.I don't use ICQ anymore.Comment

Sounds to me like you've kind of got a maelstrom of events that taken one by one are powerful, but combined are making the road very, very rocky.
You sound like a caring person, or the prospect of having to layoff your employees would not be bothering you so much. If you are forced to do so, I believe that they are going to appreciate the lengths you've went to to not have to lay them off. It isn't your fault that things have tanked in the economy, and as long as you have tried to look out for your people, I am sure that they will get that fact.
To me, it doesn't sound like you are totally over the divorce thing. That can take some time to come to terms with, even if you are the person who wanted the divorce.
And then there is the search for the sense of meaning that you seem to be experiencing. Don't get me wrong, I know that I am fortunate to be able to earn my living online. But, if I am being honest, it is not work that is fulfilling in the overall sense. Yes, if I learn a new way of doing things, or master something, then I get enjoyment out of that. But by and large, I don't think this is my life's work or the best utilization of who I am.
Venting can be good, and I hope you feel better for it.
If the feelings you are having persist, I'd think it is likely that you are suffering from depression. If so, I urge you to get help with that.
Because life is too short not to. There is meaning and purpose and beauty and joy; it's just a matter of finding them.
Go well.

If you have fought to so hard for your employees I am sure they will understand that you have to let them go. Knowing you care about their well being means alot. And its not like you are casting them adrift. There are unemployment benefits to help them through till either you can rehire them or they will find another job.
You will get through this and be better in the end for it.ICQ# 419 775 271

I don't post very much here because most stuff here is crap, however, sometimes you read something and it relates to your life either past or present so here is something i hope will help...............
If you are ONLY turning 31 and you are heathly then its very simple.............WAKE THE FUCK UP...............my friend, i am turning 46 and I would give most anything to change places with you..........the difference in our ages is basically a lifetime and you need to stop wasting TIME.........TIME if far more important than anything........money, love, work because its the only thing you can't replace or get more of, no matter what.
So what I'm saying is it's okay to have a bad day but YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE...................YOU!!!!!!
Don't wait 15 years to decide or realise that everything that happens in your life is up to YOU!
Now, turn off the computer and take 3 days off and get out of the house and go do something you WANT to do or NEED to do GET OUT OF THE RUT YOU ARE IN RIGHT NOW
Good luck and I wish you the best!You may beat our prices but you can't BEAT our MEAT
