Things that are worthwhile

Postby Dr Frook » 01 Apr 2011, 05:15

We've been working on a complicated, huge project now for over 18 months. We don't know for sure if it will work, even after such a huge investment of time and money. I keep on reminding myself, to achieve anything worthwhile, anything great, you have to work bloody hard and in our case spend a lot of time and energy. We can hope things will succeed in the end, but there is never any guarantee.

Sometimes the pressure can be overwhelming, but I try to remind myself that if we want to achieve great things, we need to suffer a bit along the way.

has anyone had any tough challenges to overcome? Were they worth the effort put in? Did you succeed in the end?

The whole live is full of such things and i think the strongest and hardest of them is
love.

Love is something so great that no one can apprehend it but if it catches you you would cope with all the pain of the whole world just to maintain this feeling one more second

At the moment I feel things are not very worthwhile, It feels
pretty insignificant to be a gear on a larger clock. The only things
I feel that were gained, shouldn't have even been given. Which is
the power of voice in Media, that really ruined this generation.

I can only stay in the comfort and at the shores of the ocean for
so long, The tide will still ebb and flow. As long as we know the
next wave hits the shore I'll be happy.

Each piece of the grandmaster clock only serve's to delay or harbour
our sorrow.

At the moment, serenity and peacefulness of nature and the stars are things
that are worthwhile.

your investments are worth it? or not worth it? How do you feel as a person doing the big task?

I always seem to be feeling 2 paticular ways.

One way is quite sluggish, not caring, and that's usually when I'm in my comfy old regime and I'm trundling on as usual.

The other is when I feel really, really great because I'm doing something different - whether it will succeed or not.

When I was first diabetic, they refused to give me an insulin pump. I didn't want to settle on 13-15 injections a day. So I cracked down and I did my blood sugar strictly, on the dot, I carb counted (measured out food, etc) down to the last gram and yes it was hard. But it worked out.

I don't want to say I've had a bad life - I've certainly haven't. I'm lucky, I have running water, gas, a bed to sleep in. But I've had some tough challenges.

I consider events and things in your life to add to your grey balance, which is the amount of grey you can see in opinions, how much you can reason and at basics your intelligence.

When I was 6 my parents split up - I had to adapt to being thrown out of the posh girl lifestyle and into what I considered "commoner" places. I'd like to say it added to my grey balance. Then at 11 I was in hospital with diabetes, thyroid problems, and all the complications surrounding that - being in the waiting room for a triple heart bypass I stopped taking things for granted, once again adding to my grey balance. Alot of other things have happened, but I don't consider the things themselves, I consider what you learn from it.

So would I give up parents being split up? No. Would I want to have never been diabetic? No.

If there was a cure, that's great, or if my mum got a new partner, great.

But I've learnt so much from those challenges and where it's put me today - and however arrogant it sounds, I like who I am and I wouldn't change it for the world.
