Lifes pretty good

[ForcedFirebird]

Cool idea for a thread.

Lemme see, I wake up in the morning to an arms full of family, lots of hugs from the wife and 4 kids, go to my shop and weld/fabricate/wrench/tune cars (80-90% are e30's). Then on weekends I enjoy my kids playing soccer/baseball/basketball/lacrosse, or maybe just swimming in the pool etc. Several weekends a year I get to drive race cars.

Oh yeah, also live in a place that's summer year round.

Only complaint is my boss should give me a raise, that shyster lol.

[Exodus_2pt0]

No complaints here!

Cool job that allows my wife to stay him and raise our children. Roof over our heads, no concerns about how we will pay next months bills.

It took 10 years of hard work to finally get here, but I wouldn't trade it for anything.

All my friends are dicks and I am not going to be able to go back to school for a while. But hey, I have a roof over my head, an awesome job, and some leftover chili waiting for me at home. It's the little things

I have epilepsy which is that thing where you get seizures. I can technically drop dead any time just by walking down stairs or hiking in an un safe area. Hell I had a seizure in the e30 at 70 mph on the freeway and I'm still here. Everyday on Earth alive is a good day. Our politicians make this world pretty bleak with our ignorance but OP, good thread. Life is GOOD.

I like this thread. Positive vibes can go a long way.

Just a couple weeks ago life was super shitty. Girlfriend broke up with me, got rear ended in my e30, laptop was stolen, and got denied to my #1 transfer school. This all happened within a week or so of each other, but things have gotten better.

Just go back from my dreadful 8am physics lecture but I drove my e30 back and I didn't get in an accident, so today is going good so far. Overall life is great. Got payed out by insurance after being rear ended in my coupe, grades are good, friends are plentiful, got accepted to Sac State so I am transferring, only 3 weeks left in the semester then summer time and I am moving back to NorCal. Life is treating me well.

Sup fellas,

Too many problems in the world. Everyone is always bitching, complaining, and enciting arguments, etc...

I just got back from Napa, had some great wine, ate some gourmet food, and relaxed a bit before coming back. My 911 is running and my lawn is green.

Post up if you're enjoying life.

If I had this to say Id agree.

[Mr. Burns]

great job, weather is awesome lately, I'm mid engine swap which i'm really enjoying so far, beautiful wife is pregnant with our 1st daughter, we're all healthy.
Life is looking good, and will only get better ;-)

So true that it's the little things. I have a wonderful wife of 22 years (don't always get along but understand and love each other), 3 respectful, good kids, close family and wonderful in-laws (bet not too many can say that��). I have a roof over my head and a decent job- happy to be working after 3 months on the sidelines! And yup...my E30. Say something nice to someone today. Call a friend that you haven't spoken to in a while. Take chances. Don't just be a passenger in life....DRIVE IT!

I've got a steady job, my vert is almost finished with preventative maintenance and repairs, I'm going to college and I graduated high school. And I don't have a ball and chain to weigh me down and stall my plans for my future.

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

[5ickride]

We all could be in Syria or Nepal or for that matter Baltimore! Life is awesome thank God!

the world can be shit if you allow it to be

I have a beautiful wife that loves me, a job I'm good at and enjoy, a hobby that keeps me sane and I got to drink beer and grill out under the stars last night. There is always someone somewhere that has it way worse, be thankful for the little things, it allows you to appreciate what you really have.

in a nutshell

I think kids really change things dont they? I'm actually much happier now than before i had them. But they're still a pain in the ass lol

Congrats...i wish my wife could stay home. One day.

I've realized that as cheese as it sounds, having a positive outlook in life actually welcomes positive things to happen in return.

Life is meh. School is alright, girlfriend moved to So-Cal so that sucks... But other than that, looking forward to seeing her soon. In that regard it's good. Oh, and daily driving a 2002 is always good.

[lambo]

C'mon...nothing?

Hate the town I'm in. Still have a year left of school here, though. Still waiting to hear back on a summer internship. Finals are next week. E30 is probably broken but I have no time to fix it. Still have a million hours of homework over the next week. Yeah, meh is about it.

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?

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.

Each subsequent episode makes it easier to have the next. It's getting a bit worse but I'm still here :)
