The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposing ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function. -- F. Scott Fitzgerald -
Trying? Hmm...
When you feel lonely, depressed and inadequate in every sense, and then two members of your family die. Luck and my lack of will got me out...I think.Comment

I would say around my 7th, 8th, and 9th grade..three years in a row three of my relatives died...I felt so helpless..like somekind of curse had been put on my family...and at that time I seriously thought that I would be the next to go, my take on it was that since all of their birthdays were in September and mine was in semptember aswell then it would be my turn soon...now that I think about it I think I was selfish for woring about my life rather than being there for my dad and mom who were more close to our relatives then I was....It was hard on our family, but we managed to move on, what else can you do, right?Originally posted by ckBejug
The only motivation I had to move on with my life was that in 7th grade when my cousin died, not of natural causes, he was killed, and the police didnt do shlt to find who did it, I promised myself that one day when I can afford a private investigator or someone that can help me find the a$$whole who did it, not so I can get revenge, just to know WHY?Comment

Well, I've had a family member die every year for the past 7 years. Nobody has died yet this year, but there's 8 months left.

Well, I'm sure most of you know about my father's passing this past year. That was the most difficult time of my life. In fact, the pain is getting worse as time goes by. But, I have learned how to cope with this loss by sharing my thoughts with my mother....as well as my good friends. I don't think anyone can get up after having gone through such a major ordeal all by themselves. I think it takes a strong family support to get through every day, knowing that there is a HUGE part of your life missing. Oh yea, laughing and joking also helps me a lot. Also, when I want to cry, I don't care where I am..I will find a private little space..and cry. I think it's the worst thing to have to hide your feelings or keep them bottled up inside. Let it out!!! All is well with the world when you have a strong sense of self and encouragement from your family/friends.
Armel, if you ever need a shoulder to cry on...I heard Satan's always willing to listen.

Where do you get the idea I think it's cool? Because of the smiley face? To me that smiley face looks like a sideways frown, not a "cool" face, so that's why I put it.Originally posted by Inna
Thank You. Come again.

What has been the most catastrophic event-Lakers/San Antonio Game 6 2003 playoffs
the most trying state you have endured- Texas
the time when you feel cornered pushed to the limit and could almost feel your defenses cracking but there was just one way to go-- forward.- Like this season
What do you think is the best source of motivation, strength in such a situation? Winning one for Karl, GP, Phil's 10th championship to pass Red Auerbach. And of course the celebrationComment
