Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
a little atheist comedy...brought to you by George Carlin...or maybe its "sun worshipper" comedy.

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

What
a difference a sad event in someone's life makes.
A Message by
George Carlin:
The paradox of our time in history is that we have
taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider
Freeways,but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less, we buy
more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more
conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less
sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems,
more medicine, but less wellness.
We drink too much, smoke too much,
spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too
angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV
too much, and pray too seldom.
We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We
talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.
We've learned how tomake a living, but not a life. We've added years to life not
life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have
trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer
space but not inner space. We've done larger things, but not better
things.
We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We've conquered
the atom, but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn less.
We plan more, but accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to
wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more
copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.
These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character,
steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two
incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes. These are days
of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night
stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to
quiet, to kill. It is a time when there is much in the showroom window
and nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this letter
to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or
to just hit delete...
Remember; spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not
going to be around forever.
Remember,
say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because
that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.
Remember,
to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the
only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a
cent.
Remember, to say, 'I love you' to your partner and your
loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will
mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.
Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not
be there again.
Give time to love, give time to speak! And give time to
share the precious thoughts in your mind.
AND ALWAYS
REMEMBER:
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take,
but by the moments that take our breath away.
Isn't it amazing that George Carlin - comedian of the 70's and 80's -
could write something so very eloquent...and so very
appropriate.
It was super funny :D
Hey...what about the Joe Pesci worshippers...gotta give them some fear too...don't wanna leave em left out! :(
