Do you get fed up with life.

It's a question I have been meaning to ask for several weeks now. Do you get fed up with your life ? You see I am often in pain because of my medical condition but I never get fed up. Life is always fun for me, if it stopped being fun I would quickly do something about it. I changed my job about seven times because employers put me under too much pressure. If you are not enjoying your work, leave. If you don't like where you live, move to somewhere else. I've done it seven times in my life. If I didn't like it here in north wales I would move at the drop of a hat. Life is too short to put up with a load of rubbish from around you. Don't complain, do something about it, all members of this forum are lovely people to me, you should not have to put up with anything. I find the people that do, age very quickly. We have people in our family who have endured various problems for years. In the long run it has not done any of them any good.
Have a think about it, could you change your life so that you are really happy again. What stops you from doing it accept your own attitude to how things are. I told my wife if anything happens to me and she is unhappy here sell the houses and live somewhere where you can have a dam good time, doing what you want. Do you think I have the right attitude ? Please say what you like if you prefer I will not reply to anything you say.
Best regards
bob

You have the right attitude but some of us cannot change things.
I moved for health reasons - it was not a good move and I can't change that.
I cant change the health problems either.

Re: Do you get fed up with life.

Some people have little or no control over their circumstances regarding changing job or moving home.

We like were we live but we need to down size soon. The house and gardens will soon be unmanageable for either us.

Re: Do you get fed up with life.

Patsy is right some of us are not in a position to change things in our lives, financial constraints can severely limit options. Never take your lives for granted, things can change in a heartbeat.

Re: Do you get fed up with life.

How can anyone get fed up, this is an amazing journey, no other living thing has lived this moment before, has it?.

Re: Do you get fed up with life.

Agree with all the above posts, people cannot always change their circumstances due to financial, health or family reasons.

I am one of the fortunate ones who have extracated myself from a situation, but it took a long time before I was able to do it.

Yes I agree that it's no good complaining about a situation, you either have to put up with it or change it. But we do love a good moan don't we

A bird in a gilded cage is still a bird in a cage...

The trick is not to see the bars..

We are all trapped by one thing or another , work , housing, family, finance whatever...The trick is to find a little joy and happiness in what we do have ..

Re: Do you get fed up with life.

I think a lot of people do get fed up with things in life, if they are in pain all the time, I do, but if there's nothing you can do about it, then you just have to get on with things, I am in pain all the time, but I still have to go out and visit my elderly Mother twice a week in the rush hour on two trains and two buses, as I have no choice.

Re: Do you get fed up with life.

Same here but I am constrained by the cost of moving so not sure I can do much about it.

Re: Do you get fed up with life.

I agree Cass.
Sometimes I think we should try to be content with what we HAVE got, instead of always yearning for more.
I would love a bigger place with more garden, a greenhouse and a veg,patch, and more space for my dogs to play, but on the other hand, some people don't even have a home of their own at all.
It's easy to want more, but not always easy to feel content with what you already have.
