But to say that just bitching about it is the same as denying it is just plain wrong. Denial removes power of action because you can't fix something you won't acknowledge needs to be fixed and attack others for trying to fix it. By bitching about it you are trying to get others out of their denial so that together we can all work to change things because otherwise all you'll do is fight others who deny anything needs fixing.

I hope this makes sense and of course it's all just my opinion. But as they say the first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem. This is just as true in other areas of life not just substance abuse. I understand you frustration my friend and I hope you find something to empower yourself with in this fight. It will re-energize you to feel like you are making a difference and keep you from feeling powerless and defeated. Sending you love and blessings.

Blessed be~

You're the third person to tell me today (chronologically the second, yet somehow i still feel you're definitely the third :wtf


and i do actually agree, it's just that i feel like this whole thing is much bigger than anything else, and yet it is the last thing anyone deals with!

People are so consumed by tiny mindless tasks (which do build up, but only over a long period of long and repetitive redundancy) that they either fail to see, or out right ignore the real issues!


All i can do is bitch and complain, and i have no freaking clue how much i am helpping at all, if at all. it's very discouraging... not to ever imply im going to stop bitching, it's all i've got to try to make a difference

but i need more accomplished!


Thanks for your words :thumbsup:
