A job. I really dislike being unemployed. I have everything else I could possibly want.

But if nothing comes up by April. I'm cycling across Europe for 2 months.

I was struggling to think of how I could possibly be any happier. Life is pretty damn good!

But now I've discovered that I could have been living a life of pampered, cosseted luxury in one of Flashy's many desirable residences..... well.... I feel a bit cheated

[b]'From[/b] life'?

To continue to observe the universe from the human perspective.

Life is what we make it and in that context, mindfulness, acceptance and attitude. Choose any two and the third naturally occurs. Faith helps too 😉

Sleep! With two young children forming an effective tag team approach to nocturnal endurance, a few good nights sleep would be very appreciated right now...

Right now, to be able to sleep! I've had terrible insomnia for 12 months.

To be able to lay down the burden and have peace of mind - the impossible dream.

Six months ago I was in a very good place, a job I enjoyed, good set of friends, money coming in.
That has all collapsed in the last two months and I'm not looking forward to 2016.
So what do I want? I guess a change in fortunes.

Im pretty lucky decent job, great wife, good quality friends, loving family and a lovely house those are the good bits.

The bad bits are work pressures increased due to cuts, most of the folks at work although respectable people can be pretty awful at times and many act like a bunch of kids in the playground- grow up!, I struggle with self acceptance but I think many probably do and I just dont understand why the world around us has to be so cruel.

Love, Peace and Tolerance is the way forward, but on the whole life for me is a lucky one and I count my blessings.

Sounds like a more than a few of you need a good long chat with God.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him and he will make your paths straight.

I want to be well enough to ride my bikes. Shall I pray for a miracle?

To spend quality time with my family, dogs & friends.
To see my daughter growing into an amazing young woman.
To get out on my bike and enjoy the outdoors.
To dance all night in a field to loud repetitive beats every once in a while.

That's about it.

Willard-That is so damn sad.
Puts everything into perspective.
Just go for it, miracles do happen sometimes.
Some people just deserve a break, and you my son are one of them.
Good luck for 2016.

What Binners said, except add winning £100 million on the lottery to pay for:

1) Coke,
2) Hookers,
3) Rehab,
4) Repeat.

Ahh, just thought of another...

To drink The Flower Pots beer until I die.

That'll do.

If you can, you should do this now.

I have little to complain about, although I could. But I'd really like to find my vocation in life. I'd like a job I love doing since I have to spend so much time doing one. If I found that, the rest - which is already decent - would be much better. I think.

My 5yo son told me tonight that he's going to ask Santa next year for me and his mummy to be back together again. This after telling me all weekend about mummy's new boyfriend..

He has no idea how much of a mess I am still in, even after 2 years having passed. I honestly feel like I can never again have what I truly want and need out of life. He's the only reason I bother to get out of bed most mornings.

I'd settle for the knowledge that I'll ever feel happy again.
