Life goes on

That is the harsh reality, no matter what happens in any one particular moment in one particular place, life goes on.

I unfortunately failed to live life I just struggled to exist.

I regret the paths I have taken that have brought me to this point . I, unfortunately have led a life without meaningful purpose, or relationships. In reality it doesn’t matter but I regret not having left a positive impact on this world. Life goes on.

whatever happens today, life goes on. Even here, being a very small strand in this community , if things go as expected and my journey here ends, life goes on. Maybe my name is mentioned in passing but I wasn’t a bright shining light of positivity in anyone’s life here. Honestly I am a very forgettable person. Life goes on. I will not be missed. Being missed or any of these things has never been anything I ever desired, I don’t like being the center of attention. But not even being a positive enough influence on even one individual to be remembered is proof positive that my life was not well lived. Life goes on.

I regret not being able to get rid of this negativity and exchange it for complete positivity. Life goes on.

I was on a wonderful journey towards positivity and …enlightenment? I don’t know if that is the word I am looking for but it is the best one at the moment. I wish I hadn’t let that slip away due to the hateful words of one person. Life goes on.

I am thankful to have been here .

@Iamwhoiamwhoami

Hey there, I hear where you are coming from in the sense of ‘life goes on.’ I feel that saying is true to all of us. Whether we made a big impact or not. But, I can see how you would be reflecting with a sense of regret. I get not liking being the center of attention and feeling like a small strand in a pile of many. As, I use to attend chatrooms and just watch on without saying anything. But, I feel this community really is very welcoming. Know that you’ll always be met with open arms here if you partake in any event or try to take on roles to get more involved. Either way, thankful you are here with us. You’re definitely noticed Let me know if you ever need anything. <3 💜

Thank you for reaching out to me and sharing your kindness and support. I am in full agreement about this community, it is a wonderful place an I have been extremely fortunate to have been accepted into it.

I am always open to other points of views and ideas, etc. . My ramblings are just that , ramblings. Catching a strand or two of the many random racing thoughts in my head and writing them here. Maybe they make sense maybe they don’t. I can at least capture the essence here and try and make sense of it over time. These thoughts don’t necessarily represent the mood I am in or how I am feeling. It just is the nonsense that flows through.

Thank you again. I appreciate you taking the time to reach out.

hi,

I have a question and sorry if this not appropriate? But, I am wondering if you still have time, I wanted to ask you, do you think you could go to a yoga retreat abroad? I know you said you are lonely or did not have an impact, but I honestly feel that this would help you not feel alone and would add a purpose as you mentioned enlightenment. This has much to do with Buddhism, I am not a Buddhist, but it could lead you in the right direction. To be honest, I don't think many of us will be remembered, I have to be honest, I might be one of those people right now. I know people and my family. Do you have any family left?

Thank you for reaching out to me. Interesting idea.

I can barely go outside on most days , my social anxiety issues take over. I am going to have to say going abroad is not something I could handle doing, especially doing alone.

Plus with my brain switching off and on randomly, I don’t think that would be a good thing to have happen abroad. Could provide an interesting outcome but my luck it wouldn’t be a good one.

I really do appreciate the ideas though. It gives me something different to ponder.

Family, no I don’t have any. No friends either, other than here of course.

Thank you again, I appreciate the thinking outside the box, It would be nice if I wasn’t so messed up by so many issues.

I am truly grateful you reached out to me.

@Iamwhoiamwhoami you're welcome. Hope you do not mind. I recently "broke up" with someone, I try to go out and meet people but I am a very lonely person in general. I have issues due to my introversion, and I am very skeptical of others... so I like to help other people on here when possible... since there's nothing else I can do, I cannot help the people who mean anything to me as they live so far away and I just wish I could help them but I can't. So, you see, there is only so much we can do in life... and we have to live and accept and live with that... if you know what I mean... and it's so hard to make friends in real life sometimes.

Have a good night

Life goes on…. What exactly is life , in order for it to go on it has to be something. I don’t see anything.

@Iamwhoiamwhoami Have you checked into the CTE light therapy? Perhaps that would offer some hope?

Not yet, I am not sure if I am going to continue on that path. I’m to the point of realizing I have a destiny to be on the one path I am on. I need to just accept whatever is happening and let it do whatever it’s going to do.

Thank you for trying though.

@Iamwhoiamwhoami At the risk of being annoying…

sometimes when I’m uncertain, especially when it involves something like booking an appointment, I go ahead and book it with the knowledge that I can always cancel.

The thing about clinical trials is that they always have some benefit. If not to the patient, it eventually leads the science in the direction to best help others. If you’re asking about life purpose, sometimes we find that in helping others.

That said, acceptance of our situation is also a path that may give us peace. May you find the path that is best for you.
