Lifes pretty good

[Dozyproductions]

No doubt. Shit could be way worse. But relatively it could be a bit better. A year from now is gonna be a completely different story. A lot of the poor choices I've made have just compounded into this year.

It's almost insulting to hear you say "relatively" like that. I'd kill for your meh.

I went to jail, last Christmas, for getting a ticket while having a seizure and not remembering about it. I missed my court date and never knew about and had a warrant for my arrest I never knew about. It sucks to be there not knowing why you're there in the first place. I've spent enough days in the E.R. or bedridden this year to need to skimp out on needed expenses because I can't work. I've had a couple of broken bones, sprained ankles, concussions just this year alone and this is after months, or even a year, of having my medication working. I was a week away of getting my license back before all of this started happening.

Or how about missing out on my dream of becoming a fire fighter because of my 'disease' when I was about to become full time in a perfect and very hard town to be a city fire fighter for. I can't drink, I can't stay up late, I can't go to most concerts and looks like I'll never be able to legally drive an e30 again; yadda yadda yadda. Perhaps I needed to vent because there is no relative, life is good! Mind over matter.

You're entirely right. Sometimes it's hard to see through the stress and focus on the good aspects.

Got a job at walmart, about to have my first night as a DJ, and school is almost out! Life's great

About 6 months ago, I got a great job offer but on the 2nd day of work I was let go because of something from my past. Ive been unemployed ever since. Ive had a few good job offers but they have fallen through the cracks for the same reason. Im finally trying to see if a lawyer can help clean up the mess for me but...

All things considered, life is good.

We finally got an actual shop again, we are moving up!

I'm loving the positivity from you guys!

I got engaged on Friday and a promotion Monday. Feeling good after a beautiful sunny day, a trip to the gym, receiving some highly anticipated car parts in the mail, and spending a relaxing evening with my fiance. To top it off, a major project I've been working on at work for a couple of months finally successfully completed a round of testing today, and is now rolling along (albeit with 'training wheels'). These past few weeks have been truly awesome.

Life is pretty good.

I have a great son who, even at the age of nine, refuses to be anything other than himself. It took me years to be that confident in who I was.

I have had the same well paying career for almost 20 years, and got a $4 per hour raise last month. I have a pension, so I don't have to do it forever!

I own most, with my wife of 11 years, of a house in the most expensive city to live in this country. This alone is reason to be happy.

I have great extended family.

I am healthy at this point in life, and so are all my loved ones!

I have a 27 year young m3 and a 09 135 cab in the stable. The 135 just had the walnut blast so no worries left there! I am presently looking for a MK1 triumph GT6 to purchase for classic car rallies.

And today, my wife just got confirmation that she got the job she was pushing for, and suits her. She is now a professional shit disturber. :) L.R.O for a very large healthcare union. And it comes with a pay raise!

To top it off, I got my tax return today! Bam!

Can't complain.

That's great news man, congrats!

We all have it pretty good really. We're here on a forum talking cars and buying parts. Life is never perfect but you get to decide what to let hang over your head.

Thinking about going back to school. I can't work retail my whole life. But I want to make it count. No more fooling around. I have to pick something I like, not something that pays well, and go with it. I want to be an auto mechanic, but don't want to get stuck working at the local tire shop. I want to do cool stuff in a niche shop for enthusiasts who have the same interests as I do. I want to be the turbo Yoda to someone's Marty.

...which is good. For the longest time I didn't want to have anything to do with my future, school, responsibility. I always had a tomorrow when I could figure things out. But I also always knew things would fall into place. Maybe now is that tomorrow where I want it for me, and not because it's something I'm supposed to do.

I can say I'm quite pleased with my life right now.

I just noticed your sig... you left one out. Btw, I've just started playing Reborn, and holy jesus christ, it's the best game in the series bar none. I caught a Goldeen.... never before have I been excited about catching goldeen. And the best part... it has Lightning Rod. Suck it, electric attacks!!

$6 an hour raise and leaving the vampire shift and going back to days. Things are looking pretty good.

Damn, some Debbie downers in here. You are both white males (I'm assuming) in the U.S. You could have been born anything, anywhere but you were given what's probably the most privileged starting point to life that 95% of people aren't. Do you have any idea how many people would literally kill to trade places with you?

Oh I know, I was trying to say I'm more than thankful for the situation I have. Life is always good, you just need to have the right perspective.

Personally not a big fan of Sylveon, but I couldn't find one with all the sprites doing their idle animation. Always been partial to Glaceon or Umbreon. Been playing a LOT of Omega Ruby lately and have been doing some breeding for Perfect IVs. Gotta stomp some guys in competitive battling and raise my lovely team.

I've heard good things about Reborn though. Looks like a lot of fun.

This is my take on " Life is pretty Good" and it is.
My wife of 31 years has brain cancer its not good. Ginge and I have become so close. Thats awesome.
Our 2 kids are amazing grown ups.
Our Church family is incredible providing love,support, prayers.
Ginge and I drive in our E30 on the weekends and love it. And GOD willing we both will be at the E30 picnic.
Life is hard but you know what, Life is pretty good. its amazing in fact.
Love your Family and friends.
