We all face an uphill climb throughout the majority of our life, and no matter what, it always seems harder than the struggles everyone else endures. Yet somehow, we all muster the strength to keep on going. I sometimes don't know how I manage each day, but giving up is a surreal fantasy to me, a concept I am incapable of grasping. So day after day, trial upon trial I am forced to discover what triumphs I will undoubtedly watch myself lay claim to, what unbreakable walls I will inevitably shatter when the stream of life draws me inescapably beyond them.
In my spare time spent looking at memes (most of my time is spare, only a small fraction spent on memes) I have taken quite a liking to Courage Wolf. This meme depicts the wolf unwilling to back down from any challenge, no matter how great. I find this extremely appealing because this wolf is a role model to the way I want to live my life. This sort of advice can give me strength in the most dire of circumstances. I think when I am backed into a corner, I begin to act like Courage Wolf. So when I find myself in a situation escapable only by death, I need only ask myself WWCWS "What would Courage Wolf say?" and I have my answer.
What gives you the strength to carry on? Fit a warfare link to your tech 1 battlecruiser. Train Wing Commander. Get in the Squad Commander or Wing Commander position. Your fleets will be superior to everyone else's. (had this sig BEFORE Odyssey BC rebalance) "What if [climate change is] a big hoax and we create a better world for nothing?" -comic on Greenmonk |

i just realize that my life is really actually not that bad and i have very little to complain about. i'm actually extremely fortunate and lucky to be where i am. i could be living in a country where i would have to worry about starvation, terrible diseases or getting raped on the walk to the water well 16 miles away and stepping over dead bodies along the path to and fro.
thinking about that alternative put things in perspective for me pretty efficiently. |

I don't think my life is hard. I'm blessed, though sometimes I don't realize it.
I just wish I could go climb a rock 24/7. Not doing so makes me grumpy. ~ we're flying high, we're watching the world pass us by ~

you mean rock climbing? that's awesome. Me and a few friends do this regularly.. specially if one of us needs an anger outlet.. Mostly in a rec center.. though sometimes we actually climb rocks.. But the former much more convenient.

I like climbing. When I was little, I used to love climbing trees. I miss it so much but there just haven't been climbable trees around me for so long that I've lost my ability. I'd still do it if I had some good trees for it. It's something that I'm missing out on and that bothers me deeply.
If I were King, I would have climbing trees planted around as one of the staple trees. Fit a warfare link to your tech 1 battlecruiser. Train Wing Commander.

To be honest I am currently at one of my lowest points in life, in a life that has not been the easiest. What I have done is that I have worked towards being able to help those that are worse off then I. My work is a daily dose of Reality Check. Reality Check is one of the best motivators I know of. Nothing like a swift dose of You Don't Really Have It That Bad first thing in the morning is also a great wake me up. That being said I find myself feeling down for my people as well. Empathy is a huge monkey on my back. |

Slade, there is something to be said about being one of those who dwells in the shallow end of the Abyss. Having dealt with depression for 30+ years I can say with absolute honesty that one of the best feelings in life is to reach out and grab the hand of someone who desperately wants out but doesn't know exactly how and to yank them out of that drain to oblivion. It wont make things better for you necessarily, but knowing that you helped them out of that sinkhole that you cannot yourself escape somehow makes it worthwhile. Being a lifeguard for those whom life has kicked in the teeth is something to be proud of, but not overly so. The normals will never understand, there are others who will though. |

Dunno really. Cause I gotta? Not meant to be glib, but yeah, I'm probably a highly decadent westerner with no concept of loss or having it really hard. Life is just kind of boring... job swallows most of your time, relationship is fun but meh, and it's still like forever until the next thing I'm hyped for comes out.....

If EVE is what keeps you waking up every day without a long pull off a buckshot inhaler, then more power to you, and for that matter props to EVE. I don't like some of the aspects of EVE and how folks treat each other either, but I can't really say it's something that keeps me going in day to day life. To me, ultimately, this is a game. Granted it is a game that I cherish and love for it's myriad screwed up dysfunctional participants, but still a game. The community at large is a slightly different matter, as they are people. While my loathing for the human race as a whole is epic in scale, individual people deserve, in my opinion, a chance to represent themselves as being either praiseworthy or reprehensible. EVE is comprised of individuals who fall on both sides of this fence, oftentimes simultaneously. It's like an internet 'Cannery Row', where you'll find saints, sinners, heroes and villains all wrapped up in one, with only the when and where and why to determine what face you encounter at the moment.
