hmmm..drugs, sex, sleep, money..hehe..a good conversation is good too. some people are either A. very funny, helping you to see that life isnt that bad. the pain lives in your head, right? or B. wildly inferior, boosting your self esteem to new heights..
anyway yeah and music of course!! gets me through everything. what do you listen to ghost?
oh p.s. i find a bit of exercise and meditation to be helpful too

Similarly, if somebody is open minded when it comes to their choice of music, they'll probably be pretty open minded towards other things, too...
I like people that are open minded about everything - I can't stand stubborness (I can be stubborn occasionally myself, though.. hypocritical, too lol) so the people I hang around with listen to all sorts of music.. That's probably because alot of them are musicians in some form (or wannabe's lol)..
Anyway, what was the question?
Oh, there wasn't one.. I keep going off on a tandem today :p
umm... Carry on.. Nothing to see here...
For a smoker, you sure are long-winded there ghost :D
To answer your question:
Whenever I feel like that, I just remind myself that no matter what happens in my life, the sun will always rise the next day. Feeling bad won't change anything, and life will go on regardless, so I figure I may as well make the most of it. Confidence and determination make important positive changes, depression and sadness do not.
Now I understand that a lot of people can't just convince themselves to feel better, but it has always worked for me. I'll always love myself, so that ability comes naturally.
That's a really good outlook to have on life.. it's a shame more people don't think like thatQuote:

It's wierd how people find it hard to think like that, because it makes the most sense..
Nice post, cleve :)
...can anyone tell i'm in a good mood!?! lol
smoking pot.
sex usually increases the depression.
I agree...mary's the only woman for me
~007~
sex, drugs, talking to friends, listening to music...(i love all those bands), i dont listen to any particular type either, i listen to it all, it just depends on whta the day brings and what mood im in! lol! but yea, that pretty much what cheers me.
not too exciting?
I love going off on a tandem! But if there's no-one else around to ride with, I just ride my own bike and save the tandeming for some other time. :)Quote:

Then I went for a 25 mile spin, nothing big, though there were a few hills. Stopped in at the local for a couple brewskis.
Wish every day could be like that.

I told the kids straight away, that it would be best if they just ate their breakfast in the lounge and watched TV, 'cos "Daddy was in a very bad mood, and would be stomping around the kitchen etcetc"...
Anyways, my eldest (6) asked why, and I told him the truth - that as usual, I didn't have any money to do anything nice. Bless him, he said that we could just go to the park, or summat, because that didn't cost any money, and he gave me a big hug.
Man, I nearly cried.
Whenever I'm feeling down (like I am now), all I have to do is think of my gorgeous boys, and I can't help but smile.
They are my reason, and I love them very much indeed.
