A Discovery!
Okay, second post today but I have something to say. I've discovered a nameless indivual's blog (I'm not certain she wants people to know she's keeping one yet). I've noticed something.
What's with all the angst people!? I swear, people's inner thoughts are always so depressing. Am I like that, seriously? I mean, I try to be as optimisitc as possible and ignore all this depressing crap, but to me its beginning to seem as if people are hunting for the bad things. I'm sure I could make my life sound really bad if I said all the things that bothered me in this blog, but I don't. I mean, I understand certain people are going through depressive times, and things are hard for them. I understand work, school and relationships are piling up. But there are plenty of good things in life as well.
I know understand in psychology how we were told humans weren't designed to cope with this kind of stress. I have the theory that humans were designed to exist as cavemen, and so we're not built to cope with stress from work, exams and relationships, we're built to cope with stress from fighting off wooly mammoths. And so, people become depressed and can't see the positive things. Like the fact that we're alive and we don't have to fight to STAY alive. Imagine if we were living in poverty in a third world country? With no food or water regurlaly, and more concerned about staying alive than passing a psychology exam or getting the girl. Yet, to us, this is so stressful its all people can often think about. Sometimes I wonder if people who are under so much stress can remember the world around them, because it gets so bad for them. And I can't to anything to help, which bothers me.
But probably not as much as me attempting to interfere. I talked to Holly earlier...today? Yesterday? I forget, about Cooper and her problems. And I couldn't help but get the feeling she wanted to tell me to shut the fuck up and let her deal with it. Don't other people find it really akward when you can't help others out, because that just makes them more stressed? I know I find it irritating.
So yeah, I'm at a loss. People around me seem really depressed and troubled and there's sod all I can do about it. I'm not doing that great myself, but my problems are small compared to theres. Plus I can hide it quite easily, so it bothers me less. In conclusion, I wish I could help out in some way, but I can't. On the bright side, it seems like most things could be resolved soon. Plus, I have a feeling when depressed everyone is warping everything negatively, and failing to see the positive side, which normally outweighs it anyway.
Holy shit, this feels like ONE long post.
One final note. Everyone goes for the same black colour scheme as well. How boring is that? Whine all you want in your blogs, but come on, be original with the layout!

And you found me! Ahem. Yeah, I guess the angst thing it 'coz I don't. I don't feel the need to moan 'bout what bothers me because I can take in on inside so I can focus on slightly better things. But then when everyone else moans you read it and think "You're life could be worse! Look on the good side!". I forget that often people do exactly that, and then use the blogs to moan.
But if I had remembered that, I wouldn't have been able to write that nice long blog. And for the record, I liked being able to listen to your problems and try and help people out. Being a loser and all its nice to be able to help others out and things. So yeah, glad I could help!
